I can wear their smallest size petite jackets and tops, but not skirts or pants. I usually have the jackets nipped in at the waist, particularly if I go up to a size 2 for a better shoulder fit.</p> <p>ETA: BJ, do give them a try, though. So many beautiful things in their latest catalogues! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-anybody-talbots-sizing-review#post-224135 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 17:26:16 +0000 bj1111 224135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks, ladies...i was prioritizing my time and it doesn't sound like talbots will be particularly high yield.</p> <p>thanks again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-anybody-talbots-sizing-review#post-223959 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 05:33:39 +0000 MsMary 223959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find Talbots sizes are all over the place. I have every size on the labels in my closet, yet all the actual clothing seems to be the same size. If possible, I'd recommend trying on the actual garment you are interested in, just to be sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-anybody-talbots-sizing-review#post-223913 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 03:05:33 +0000 Donna 223913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to agree with Becky, about 1 size larger. It can depend on the item though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-anybody-talbots-sizing-review#post-223886 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 02:27:59 +0000 Becky 223886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've purchased petite sizes from Talbot's in the last year (not sure when the design change took place) and yes, I'd say they do run on the large size, about one size larger than usual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-anybody-talbots-sizing-review#post-223862 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 01:32:14 +0000 Kyle 223862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't speak to petites, but the rest of their clothes run really large on me, at least one size and sometimes two. It's lovely to pretend that I am a size four or two, but it's just a numbers game. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-anybody-talbots-sizing-review#post-223857 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 01:27:13 +0000 Jonesy 223857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think their sizing has changed much (it tends to run large), though maybe someone with experience with petites will chime in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-anybody-talbots-sizing-review#post-223852 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 01:21:54 +0000 bj1111 223852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hey guys, any feedback on how the new look designs at talbots fit, especially for the petite gals?</p> <p>i remember comments on previous thread about their proportions being on the generous side even for the smaller sizes. </p>
