Seasalt sizing/fit

Looking at them online atm. Only tried something on of their once and it was meant to be very loose so I’d be grateful for guidance on their more fitted sizing ( looking at tops ) Am bosomy size 12 UK , sometimes 14 on top, 5’4” - Boden usually too long in arm or across shoulders for comparison. White Stuff good fit on me.

I bought some size 14 trousers from them recently. Personally I found them a slightly 'snugger' fit that the size 14's I bought from Dorothy Perkins, but they are still wearable.

I'd say the fitted tops are true to size and the loose ones quite forgiving. I size up in their tshirts as I prefer a looser fit.

RavenT · 27/06/2020 13:09

I size up in their t shirts too,..

They fit smaller than White Stuff. I’m a 10 in White Stuff and a 12 in Sesalt

I worked in seasalt, and what I would say is they cut quite narrow over shoulders and boobs, the dresses especially.

ChaoticCatling · 27/06/2020 14:04

I find them true to size. I buy their tops in an 8 and they are a good fit, I'm normally an 8 in tops, 6 in jeans and shorts. I've only tried the tops though.

FlamingoAndJohn · 27/06/2020 14:07

I find them slightly larger than White Stuff.

I have a few Seasalt things and I think it depends on the style. If the bodice is fitted, then I size up, if not, then I can get my usual size.

The measurements for every garment are shown in description below the item on their website. Not a standard sizing chart so you can measure what will fit reliably.

Thank you - I am quite narrow shouldered for my boob size, that is often where things don’t fit me well ( jackets etc)

Thank you everyone else, as well !

I'm a size 10 and the size 10 in seasalt is a good fit for me. I do have a narrow rib cage and am quite flat chested though.

BestIsWest · 27/06/2020 22:15

I find them generous but I am small shouldered and wide hipped so maybe it’s my shape.
I find their tops a bit too short but if you are 5’4” they will be fine.
Everything I’ve bought from there has been lovely quality.

I find their sizing fairly generous but if you click on the fit guide on their website then you can fill in a few details plus say what size you wear for other brands and it will recommend the size you should get in that particular garment.

Ive just returned 2 Seasalt t shirts and a sleeveless linen top all petite size 12. the Tee shirts were too tight across the boobs but the shoulders fit nicely. The linen top was fine across the boobs but too wide from there down.

BoudicasBoudoir · 28/06/2020 07:38

Tops are small on me, but I’m 5 foot 9 with broad shoulders and a biggish bust. The cotton shirts (Larissa?) are particularly small/short and I always have to size up.

CherryPavlova · 28/06/2020 07:40

I ink they’re fairly generously cut.

That’s exactly the fit I get with Joules - they seem to flare out below the bust

They are a weird fit for me. I have smallish shoulders and average chest. Both tops I have seen to wear me. They’re uncomfortable and too tight across the chest whilst being too big on the shoulders.

Standrewsschool · 28/06/2020 09:07

I’ve just brought a dress. I found it came up big (compared to Next).
