Uniqlo knitwear sizing

5 replies

I need new knitwear (she said, in the most original September post ever...) and am planning to order from Uniqlo to get a casual, relaxed fit.

My style is very monochrome and I like to imagine that you can sometimes tell I'm trying to channel Kate Lanphear or Capucine Safyurtlu (from the ankles up, at least - I don't do heels any more).

I'm a flatchested size 8, sometimes a 10 (8.5 stone).

Should I buy small or medium, do you think?

(So much detail for a simple question!)

I buy M and am petite size 10 but I like a little wriggle room in my knitwear. For "Neater" styles you might get away with S

So a quick google of Kate Lanphear (but I did know Capucine 😉) shows she likes a slouchy knit. IME Uniqlo's womens knits tend to be a very neat fit. I'm an 8-10 & wear a large for a loose fit. A neater fit I would go for medium. I find the men's knitwear is more flattering if you want the slouchy look.

I'm a norky 10 and wear Uniqlo small for a fitted look. I'd have thought you might do better with their men's range if you want it really loose.

I'm a size 12 but with a mum Tum - an XL is still a slim fit on me so I get xxl.
In my opinion it comes up small

Small.

I am your size and hover between their XS and S. Depends on how tight a fit you want. Def not a M. My mum is 34F bust and she gets a M.
