I'll see what I can find today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/banana-republic-sizing-question#post-1638 Tue, 18 Mar 2008 15:18:45 +0000 Angie 1638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my word! This does not make sense. In fact BR fits use to run really big, but they have altered their fit this season which is more in line with the norm. I’m glad that you’re going to BR today to try on a few items as this would have been my suggestion. BR has different fits for pants and that you need to be mindful of. The “martin fit” is for a straighter body while the others are for curvier gals. You CAN straddle between 2 sizes in the same store, but in my experience BR is generally consistent throughout a season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/banana-republic-sizing-question#post-1637 Tue, 18 Mar 2008 14:42:52 +0000 AnaElizabeth 1637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone!</p> <p>I was perusing the BR website and found several skirts and pants that look really nice, and I would like to try. Some of the pants are online only, though, and I've never worn BR bottoms before. I checked the sizing and according to their chart, I'm a 12 or 14. This is only surprising since I'm a 6 everywhere else I go. Does BR tend to run smaller? I wear their tops sometimes and I'm a Medium there as well as most other places (J. Crew, etc.). </p> <p>I'm going to a BR store today to see if I can find some of the pieces I saw online and try them on, so my other question is that if I find my size in the store, will it probably be that size for all their pants/skirts, or do they have some variation in sizing depending on the pant?</p> <p>Thank you! </p>
