LOL</p> <p>I just remembered that I'm a 2 in the hips and a 10 in the waist. [rolling eyes] So... who knows. Maybe I should call them and ask. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372078 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:19:34 +0000 nancylee 372078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds good. You might also want to consider a long torso 8 in the one piece...just speaking from experience! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372072 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:13:45 +0000 qfbrenda 372072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok.... according to measurements, I'm a 6 on top and and a 2 on the bottom. I don't know why, but there it is. So I'm thinking I'll order tops in 8 and 10, bottoms in 4 and 6, and a one piece in 8 and 10. Does that sound right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372046 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 19:17:27 +0000 catgirl 372046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I sized up one size with my Land's End suit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372036 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 19:00:05 +0000 nancylee 372036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've found going up one size is enough in swimsuits unless you are trying Miracle suits, which tend to run smaller and need to be sized up two sizes. The only consideration you might want to factor in is length. I recently ordered a couple of suits from Lands End in my normal swimsuit size (one up from my normal clothing size) and the length was far too short....I needed a long torso, although I'm pretty well-proportioned. </p> <p>I think your plan to order a bunch of sizes is a wise one...just make sure to order a few long torsos for comparison. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372034 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:55:28 +0000 SkiDiva 372034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If it's any help, I wear an 8 in Gap Jeans, and I'm a 34C, and I generally take a 10 on the bikini bottoms and an 8 on a bikini/tankini top from Land's End. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372029 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:43:43 +0000 qfbrenda 372029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok... so I should size up one size? Angie says 2 sizes... I'm planning on ordering mulitiple sizes, so I guess both. LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372028 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:41:04 +0000 yellowgirl 372028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Size up! I went up one size &amp; got a perfect fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372026 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:37:02 +0000 MsMary 372026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd say definitely size up. They are TIGHT! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/landsend-swimsuits-size-up-or-true-to-size#post-372025 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:36:27 +0000 qfbrenda 372025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure if I should choose based on the size chart, or size up like Angie says. </p>
