BCBG sizing?

crazyone

How is BCBG sizing? I somehow happened upon their website and found that some of their sale dresses are surprisingly affordable. Many of the things that have caught my eye come in either size XXS or size S, whereas according to the size chart, I'd be a size XS. So I'm curious how their sizes run. I'm guessing XXS is wayy too small for me.

I just bought dress #3 in a small. It fits perfectly. I usually wear a 4-6 at Anthro and Banana Republic, a 2-4 at J Crew and Gap, and my measurements are something like 37-27-36. The only thing to be aware of is that the sale dresses via the BCBG website are final sale, so you want to be really sure. I bought mine in-store (where it was also final sale, but at least I'd tried it on). The thing about #3 at least is that you can hike it up somewhat--I'm not planning on wearing the drop waist quite that low.

I find that the sizing is a bit inconsistent, some things are TTS and some run a bit large. I am 35-25-36, wear 0/2 at Banana Republic and find that i need whatever the smallest size they have for dresses: XXS if it exists, XS otherwise. Some of the their tops I have that start with XS are a bit big.

I wear a S in JCrew, a S in BR and a S in BCBG, so they run fairly true to size. I do have some XS with BCBG too though. I find the length is usually too long though.

What, Tanya said. In find BCBG sizing inconsistant too. Sometimes an XS is big and sometimes it's tiny.
