Phase eight sizing help

14 replies

Prettybubblesintheair · 29/09/2022 12:13

Theres a coat I’ve absolutely fallen in love with at phase eight and it’s on offer online. No where local to me I can try it! I’m torn between a 16 and an 18. I’ve recently lost 5 stone, still going but slowly! I’m a dress size 16-18, most recent jackets I’ve bought are a 16 with room to lose more. I’m only 5ft 2, coat is a wrap puffa jacket so I don’t want it to be huge and look like it’s eating me! Do phase eight run big, small? Help please!

I found they're true to size.

Yep, I’d say true to size.

I ordered a jacket from there recently and thought it was big for size. Also very broad.

HiGunny · 29/09/2022 16:08

I find them true to size

Monkeytapper · 29/09/2022 16:12

true to size

I’m a size 24/26 so buy from studio 8 , their plus range…. A 26 fits me with plenty of room…x

Go for the 16, I find them very roomy.

Cranarc · 29/09/2022 17:08

Anything I have bought from Phase Eight has been true to size/tending larger.

I used to work for them, most things are fairly generous, except the puffer coats.

Roseyleaf · 29/09/2022 22:47

The puffers always fitted snug over the bust. Waist and hips weren't as tight.

BryceQuinlanTheFirst · 30/09/2022 03:56

I used to buy work dresses from there and always found it more generous sizing than other shops

Prettybubblesintheair · 30/09/2022 07:27

Thanks guys! I’m going to try the 16, I suppose I can always return but I’d then need to wait for the refund before ordering the 18 and a) it’s getting colder plus b) I have no patience! Thanks for the help everyone

I find their tops to be big - I'm a 14 everywhere else but a 12 there on top - so I think if you're in between the 16 should be fine.

I find the dresses on the small size, I go up the size, plus for coats you want to be able to wear a sweater underneath potentially?
