COS - do they not understand women have breasts

I have just looked at their site and every dress and top is high necked. Everything.. apart from one wrap around dress is buttoned up or right up to the neck.

I only really suit V neck or cowl neck due to having these things called boobs and I look dreadfully matronly with things buttoned up to my neck.

It is quite astonishing as some of their pieces look like they could be nice if they were V or even scooped at the front.

I’m a GG cup and I wear LOTS of clothes from Cos. I always buy in store and never on the website, as you need to try everything on.

It's all very well saying you have to shop in store but my nearest is 60 miles away.
So really, if the website makes them all look like sacks, it's not persuading me to go!

It's a trek for me too dr. I dug my heels in for a long time because their website annoys the hell out of me but now I make a journey at the beginning of the spring and autumn seasons. Even if I don't buy, I try on loads and loads of stuff and make a note of what styles suit me and which sizes I need.

I've heard people who shop there regularly say that eventually, because they repeat a lot of tyles, you can tell from the website what well work. I'm not there yet! Does it still annoy me? Yes. But it's not like the high street is bursting with alternatives.

I've always thought it was a store exclusively for Tilda Swinton.

I've got some nice things from Cos but a lot of their cuts don't flatter anyone with breasts (I'm an FF). Also agree that their sizing is all over the place Angry

And wrap dresses flatter nobody IMO, that's why the sale rails are always full of them.
