Primark - sizing?

LizBjk, 25 April, 2008 at 09:04 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 9

Shock horror, I'm going clothes shopping tomorrow. Not something I enjoy doing one bit. I'm going to primark to get some stuff for this damn holiday. Do you find the sizing is average, smaller or generous in your personal opinion?

    I'd say a little on the small side - when I was fitting into 12s other places I was still well in a 14 at Primark.

    I actually find the sizing about right, some is slightly smaller than the average but I think it depends on the styl of the clothing e.g. vest tops I buy in the 10-12, but tshirts and longer sleeve items I get in the 12-14 as the arms can sometimes be a bit tight at the top.

    I ❤️ Primarni...tis the best and I don't care what anyone says ?

    Well just to be awkward? I find the sizing more generous, particularly on t-shirts, tops and vest tops.

    I'm a 10-12, and would buy 10 tops there and some bottoms 10 or 12 and dresses a 10. I'm quite good at looking at clothes and knowing whether they'll fit or not.

    Have fun, I love primark!

    I'm a 12 with size 14 hips. However I bought size 10-12 vest tops for my holiday from their as they are more generous. Bottoms fit fine though.

    Personally I think their sizing is all over the place, you just need to look at what you like and try it on to find the size that fits. You can't guarantee that a size 12 pair of trousers will fit you with every trouser for example. I've got things from there that range from a size 10 to a size 18, and yes they all fit and I would say I am a 12-14.

    I bought 2 pairs of black trousers for work in there. Both size 14's and one pair needs to be taken in at the waist otherwise I'm walking on the hems.

    Other than that tops are usually quite good for sizing...

    I find the sizing about right for me as well.
