Monsoon sizing

[makeupmania]

Anyone with experience of buying from monsoon? How does monsoons small/medium/large sizing work? I'm a 14 so would I need a medium or large??

It varies! If large busted I'd go large. If large tummy and small busted you might prefer medium.

But that's for blouses and non tight fitting tops. No idea what size their vests etc are

I order a lot from Monsoon, especially dresses and am a pear shape (12 top and 14 bottom).

For tops and dresses I go medium and find they're a very good fit. Because I'm broad shouldered I would always order a 14 jacket to allow some room. Skirts and trousers would also be a 14 (a medium would mainly work for these).

There’s a size guide on the site, isn’t there?

Navigating yes there is and I'd say Monsoon was pretty true to size as a general rule but a lot depends on where you hold your weight or whether there is stretch in the fabric sometimes.

I’m a size 12-14 (with boobs) on top and I usually for a medium - some have been fine, others have been enormous! I go for medium on dresses too (am 14 bottom), which have been fine.
