Can anyone tell me if the sizing used by Mint Velvet is true to size please?

A few years ago, I tried on a blouse of theirs in my size and found it at least 2 sizes too small! Maybe it was a one off. I can’t say, as I’ve avoided them since!

I do find their clothes a bit small. A 10 with Mint Velvet will be like an 8 on other brands.

The best way is to look for the actual measurements on the website which will tell you whether they are close to your own at which size.

I think they are true to size as well.

I find this t true to size , I take a 6 or 8 in most brands and take x small in Mint Velvet tops. I bought quite a few tops this year for the first time. The quality and fit are really lovely.

Thanks everyone, the enquiry is for a friend in Canada. I've been caught out before with checking the online size guide, so I just wanted to check how other people had got on.

I find them true to size. Def not small. Although compared to M&S they probably are 🤨

I think it is. If not generous. I’m a 12-14 recently bought a M dress.

Mint velvet are normally true to size although jeans are slightly larger

I’m a 14 and a M is a good fit if there’s a bit of stretch or a loose style but a L if it’s fitted/ structured. I think M is 12-14 and L is 14-16. It’s say look at the composition and style.
