Get yourself to White Stuff, their sizing is way off so you will be a 16 I'm sure

FabIsDoingPrettyWell · 13/03/2010 16:10

I want to be a 12

Don't feel too bad.

Fir your information just eaten out AGAIN (zzzz) and was the paragon of virtue compared to my glutonous alter ego

plantsitter · 13/03/2010 17:04

Did you not hear about that debacle M&S had with their sizing labels, where all the size 14s got accidentally labelled 20s? Happens a lot, especially in the shops I go to.

PandaEis · 13/03/2010 17:10

i bought a pair of jeans from M&S ages ago and they were very tight despite the fact that they had 16 on the lable and i was a 14 in ALL other shops!! i measured them against my size 12 topshop jeans and they were a very close measure!! M&S sizing is poo IMO
they now wouldnt even go near me if i was shot into them with my size 16-16 arse dunno what their sizes are like nowadays

Sadlou81 · 13/03/2010 17:16

lol at conspiracies re labelling
i did the same

FabIsDoingPrettyWell · 13/03/2010 17:37

I asked the assistant if they had changed how they did their sizes and she said lots of people go one size bigger for layering. what has that got to do with what I asked?

Agree with happywheezer, M&S have gone smaller, I needed a 16 in jeans and I am normally a 14.
