Emily and Fin - true to size?

[thefirstmrsdewinter]

I usually take a 14(Ish) and their size guide says I'd take a 10 or 12 - ?

I've always found that the sizes run large, but the sizing isn't always consistent. I normally get a size or to down. Sorry that isn't too helpful.

The only dress I’ve got by them is a size 14 (L) and I am usually a 12-14 or between. M-L. It is too small.

I'm usually a 12/14 too (although I suspect the 12 is only due to generous sizing in some stores😯). I picked up some size 14 Emily and Fin dresses in a BrandAlley special and I can't get them done up over my boobs. I have kept them though because I always imagine I'll slim my chest off one day and they were very cheap. I don't always make good decisions.

Ok so mixed reviews re size! Thanks for that, it is actually helpful to know the sizing is inconsistent. I might email them to ask what they suggest.

I quite like the short cotton pajama sets and thought the top might also make a fun shirt to wear out and about, so I don't want it to be all saggy.

Thanks again.

I've emailed them before and they just quote the sizing chart.
I used to find them a tad large but nowadays they seem a bit smaller...but that may be because I'm expanding! I did buy one dress in one colour way in an 8 and then bought another in the same style and it was half a size too small.
There are some sites that may have reviews on the clothes you're interested...modcloth and birdsnest come to mind.
