Have H&M recently changed their sizes?

Suddenly everything that fits me is S, when I have been a solid M for years. (This is taking into account the oversized trend!) I am the same size I've always been.

Why?!

Has anyone shopped at mango lately? Their concessions have been popping up in John Lewis and I tried on a couple of pairs of jeans the other week and I couldn't even get the size 12's past my knees! I'm a size 10-12 in jeans in absolutely everywhere else and have actually lost 20lbs recently.

Is Mango the new H&M I wonder?!

It’s so strange because it’s only the UK and India where Mango is so small. In Spain they have proper sizes and much better clothing

Sweaty Betty sizing has gone a bit mad, too. I know their stuff has always come up big, but I've usually been a S in everything except the Powers, in which I need an XS.
Bought a bikini this week in the sale, in a small, and it's so huge on me that you could probably have fit two of me in it. Madness (or perhaps why it's in the sale?!)

See my pic upthread Grin seems people have both problems!

Saying that, my H&M Divided jeans are actually a 12 (which I take to be M), as I would expect with 38in hips...

If you look at Sheerluxe (fashion / magazine type channel)on YouTube you can see how oversized the oversized look a lot of the fashion lot aim for is. The one with Georgie trying on Levi's stuff, she wants her jacket shoulders to sit way down her arms.
