You're back! *jig of joy* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fed-up-with-allsaints-sizing#post-519434 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 17:09:55 +0000 lynne 519434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've had this experience, too. Oddly tight in some places, even in the larger sizes. I hate to give up on them since there isn't a B&amp;M store anywhere near me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fed-up-with-allsaints-sizing#post-518840 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 01:19:08 +0000 rae 518840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They sell out of some Bloomingdales, also. It should list them on the AS site. </p> <p>And, Una, it's not "force" it's an "excuse." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fed-up-with-allsaints-sizing#post-518832 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 01:10:28 +0000 catgirl 518832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There's an Allsaints in BOSTON?! I was there in November... gah! Definitely will be in touch when I'm back home again, Diana - how fun would it be to meet up, even for tea? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fed-up-with-allsaints-sizing#post-518830 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 01:07:43 +0000 Diana 518830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I so agree! Allsaints is pretty much an in-store only thing for me now. I love their jackets and waistcoats, but things are always tight in weird places or weirdly long, or something. Also, can I just say how annoying it is that they never photograph any of their pieces on models? Normally it's not such a big deal, but Allsaints clothing is so uniquely constructed and draped that you can't tell how it will look on a person from a mannequin photo. (Plus, it's really hard to see details on photos of black items!)</p> <p>But... next time you are in Boston, we should have a YLF get together and we'll go to Allsaints! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fed-up-with-allsaints-sizing#post-518827 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 01:06:15 +0000 catgirl 518827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw, thanks Rae. You're too sweet. I'd hate to, er, force you into the store, though. </p> <p>The sweaters have worked for me, but the jackets are crazy (or is it my shoulders?...)! I'm glad you're finding stuff - I need come visit you and go on a UWP shopping expedition! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fed-up-with-allsaints-sizing#post-518825 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 01:05:53 +0000 cciele 518825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fed-up-with-allsaints-sizing#post-518823 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 01:04:15 +0000 rae 518823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack! Una, I'm so sorry to hear that! I guess I have been lucky with my tops and jackets, as they are consistent for me - but the last dress I tried was too big, and I'd even sized down. </p> <p>If there's ever anything that really makes your heart beat faster, I can go do size recon for you in the future. The store is not exactly convenient but, if it's not a rush job, I usually get 'round to that side of town around every one or two months. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fed-up-with-allsaints-sizing#post-518813 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 00:55:32 +0000 catgirl 518813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So my order went back, and I tried a couple of other sizes in different styles, and nothing fits nor is consistent with any other thing in the same size. Pants that were too small were ENORMOUS in the next size up. And so on. And I had to pay an exorbitant amount of shipping to get it back within 14 days. </p> <p>Oh well, one less place to pour $ down the drain... </p>
