Cos sizing, specifically trousers

Big, small or average? Grin

I’m a 10 in Boden, a 10 or small
12 in Hush. I have slim hips and thighs. But I’m an athletic build so not a waif.

How does Cos sizing come up?

COS is large, IME. I'm an 8-10, with all weight on my thighs, and I take a COS size small.

Agree cos sizing comes up large in my experience, although I’ve never bought trousers. A lot of their dresses and tops are oversized

Thanks everyone! Buying trousers online is never easy... I’m just in need of some for spring and don’t think stores will be open any time soon...

I find their sizing unpredictable. I’d order two sizes - they have free returns.

I think their non elasticated trousers are true to size. Their dresses and tops are generally generous. I'm a standard 10 in trousers and take the same size in COS. Tops and dresses usually XS.

I'd say that stuff that is fitted to the waist comes up true to size. Tops are generous/oversized.

Thanks so much

Agree with pps; dresses and tops come up large, but I find their trousers, (the ones with buttons and zips, so not stretchy), true to size.

I’m slim and don’t fit into their 8-10. They are generously sized.

I think it depends on your shape... the straight cuts can be very slim through the hips. I’m an hour glass and lots of slim trousers don’t fit me. I’ve just bought the high waisted wide legs which are fine though.

I have a lot of Cos trousers - I’m a pear shaped size 10, very hippy, and the 36 is perfect. I can order confidently knowing they will fit which is a lot more than I can say for other brands!
