Diane Von Furstenberg sizing

I've spotted a lovely DvF on ebay but I'm not sure about sizing. Any knowledge? I'm about a size 13 in topshop.

Is it a wrap dress? I find them quite generous. I’m size 8-10 and the 8 fits perfectly.

Don’t forget that it’s American sizing. If you are between 12 and 14 you will want an 8 or 10. If wrap dress, def an 8.

Thanks, I had noticed the UK /US sizing. It's not a wrap but silk so I'd probably need a 14 to be sure.

Thanks, I'll see how the auction goes.

Quite generous, although sizing does vary between garments in my experience.

I'd say generous. I've a skirt and a dress I ordered as a UK 14 as I like to play safe, especially if there are sleeves. I had to take them both in as I was lost in the dress and this is as a woman with a 38" chest.
So I'd say generous for the skirt and dress at least.

I'd say the opposite, I've got two wrap dresses and one sheath dress and my experience is they come up quite small.

I'd say they are fairly true to size, but beware, many of the dresses are SHORT!

I'm 5'7, but long-torsoed and I've sent several items back to the outnet because the dresses barely covered my bum.

Short is good! (I'm 5ft2)
