AndOtherStories sizing....?

[AbFabQueen]

I've never ordered from AndOtherStories before, but liked this skirt I saw online. It's only available in what it says is a size 8 (EU34). I'm really unsure as to whether this will fit me, as I'm usually a size 8 or 10. What is their sizing like? Small or big? i really like the skirt, so I hope it will fit me as no other size is available ☹️ www.stories.com/en_gbp/clothing/skirts/denim-skirts/product.dot-embroidered-demin-skirt-blue.0521465003.html

has anyone bought from there before?

I buy from them quite often, and find them true to size. I’m a 10, and my things are all a 10. I have a lot of knitwear, and find it can be longer than I like it (I have a small waist and big hips) but they tend to give pretty accurate measurements.

I tried some dresses on from there recently and found the sizing large for me . I am usually an 8 and their extra small was big but they were loose rather than fitted dresses

I'm normally a 10 and agree it fits true to size. Personally I don't think I'd fit a size 8 from there - but then I'm more bottom than top heavy, if you're the other way around maybe you'd want to take a try! Returns aren't hard in any case (and the skirt is lovely)

I've only bought dresses but they've all been on the large side

Hoping the skirt Is on the large side so it fits...otherwise, I hope they restock it!

I find the sizing ridiculously small on items sized 8, 10 etc, and large on S, M, etc.

I am normally a size 10-12 in other shops (Zara, Top Shop) but always need a 14 in Other Stories.

I would say it verges toward the large. Their knitwear definitely comes up big.

Fingers crossed it's in the large side, just spotted the tiny model is wearing a 34....needless to say I don't think it will fit anymore !

They have this thing where clothes come from three “ateliers” - Stockholm, LA and Paris I think? And the cut/sizing differs a little depending on this. The Stockholm stuff is more generous, the Paris more petite.
