Mango…what’s their sizes like?

[Tinks15]

Please can anyone tell me what Mango sizing is like? Is it like Zara & most of their stuff comes up small? Or is it pretty much true to size?

Small xl is a small 14

Very small. More so than Zara.

Very, very small!!

For me I find them quite generous. I'm a 14 to 16 (Oasis 16, Joanie 16, Zara XL/16, Esprit 16). I have big boobs (34FF or G) and a big waist but slim bum, hips, legs and arms. I'm a Goblet shape. 95% of my Mango clothes are a XL/14. Some jeans a may need a XXL/16 but I'd rather go smaller so they fit my legs and bum. Their plan cotton everyday Tshirts I wear a L/12 as I don't want them boxy and baggy. Their thick cotton tshirts I wear a XL/14. Dresses I'm a XL/14 unless it's fitted, I recently bought a shirts dress in a XXL/16 as the XL/14 was just so tight on me. Oversize knits a go to a L/12. I do have a few shirts dresses in a L/12 but the style was quite baggy and I prefer a more fitted look as baggy just makes me look huge due to having big boobs.

There sizing says XL is a 12-14 but I would say its a generous 14, I am a 12 or 14 in most brands and recently bought some tops and jumpers in an XL wanting them slightly baggy and they drowned me. I had to swap them for an L which was still large enough to have a slightly oversized fit.

I’m a 10/12 and need Large size in Mango dresses but M in knitwear. You need to try on really as it’s quite random

XL is a 14. The size equivalents are on the paper price tag.

On the basis its one of the few places I can reliably find clothes to fit, I'd say its on the small side (I'm 5ft/size 6-8).

Eg I managed to buy a midi dress in an XS which actually fit on the sleeves, waist position, hips, shoulders etc. Was just a bit long in length.

BUT as others have said, depends on the type of clothing - eg boxy/oversized cuts in tops are much bigger.

I am a 14 and find them small but I carry extra weight on my tummy which exacerbates it. Mango Violeta (curve) starts at a 12 but the cut is more suited to those of us with extra bits.

It is very very short on the body.

I ordered a Mango dress from JL, I'm a 14 in most brands (sometimes 12 in FatFace) and a 34F (which bumps up the size). I wasn't expecting it to fit as I've always found their stuff comes up small.

It arrived and it's an XL, and it's too big 🤦🏻‍♀️

I like it so I can't decide whether to exchange it or get it taken in.

... and you need cocktail sticks for arms

You need to buy the next size up to your normal as the sizing runs small.

Would you say the same about their coats, so go size up?
