Anyone bought beachwear from Oysho?

I'm in the market for a new bikini, and there are loads of nice ones in the sale on Oysho.com.

I've heard of them, but never bought from them before. Can anyone tell me how the sizing comes up?

Well, I shall have to risk it. At least there's free returns.....

No but I’ve bought dresses . The fitted styles in large are too small for me at size 14 & 34 E. The kaftan ones are fine. I would say size up and order several sizes. The deliveries and returns are very quick usually and I love the dresses I’ve kept.

They are an inditex brand of zara, do you know how you size there?

Zara sizing is always totally random in my experience, but I tend to be a Medium (I'm a 10-12). I didn't realise it was Inditex!

I think I will order a few bits and return what doesn't fit. Thanks.

I really like Oysho. The quality is good. Sizing is standard - most of the clothing is loose (beachy, casual) so for example I fit into an S (I'm an 8 on the bottom but 10 on the top) but have some items in M so they flow more comfortably in hot weather. I like my clothes quite loose in general.

Their bikini sizing is standard / generous.

Yikes....just spent £160 on a shit ton of sale Oysho bikinis and swimsuits, in a selection of sizes (15 items in total). Will categorically NOT be keeping even half of it, but looking forward to a good try-on session. Free next day delivery too.

I've got a bit of their gym wear. It's lasting well. I'd def size up.

Well, my bumper pack of beachwear arrived! I really like the fact it's packed without all the plastic bags and whatnot.

It seemed decent quality......but most of the bottoms far too skimpy for this 51yo arse. Not too small....just too skimpy. Even though I avoided anything that said "brazilian". I am a size 10-12, so hardly massive!

I am definitely keeping one of the cozzies - it's lovely. And I've done a second order, to see if any of the larger bikini bottoms will work.

I loved the stuff but totally agree with you OP - no arse coverage at all Grin

Far too skimpy but it was lovely.

All ok if you don’t need to send your item back. You will get no help or refund or exchange, not worth the stress

Jools04 · 05/07/2019 18:57

You won’t get a refund though, they ignore everything

teta · 05/07/2019 20:56

I returned several things last year and was refunded within normal parameters.
