City Chic sizing?

abc

Eyeing some items from City Chic. Online order so one chance to get it right (I don't have time to buy and exchange).

Anyone know if their sizes run true? Their sizing wizard puts me 1-2 sizes above what I think I am (14W-16W) so it's got me worried, but Nordstrom reviews of some of the items in question say they run true to size. I'm confused! Help if you can! Thanks!

Hi I’ve shopped a few items from city chic and it’s a bit hit and miss. The thing to remember is that it’s an Australian company and their sizing will run closely with UK sizing. I am usually a 14-16 but am definitely an 18 in UK sizing. The Nordstrom’s website can be quite informative with actual sizing measurements and they carry city chic stuff so perhaps you can check if the items on their website for more info? I often measure myself with a tape measure and match it to the online measurements. Also check the fabric, I sometimes find “true to size” can be true if the fabric has considerable stretch in it but not the case with a minimal amount of stretch. Good luck!

Hi Faith, thanks. I'm using the US website and they say they are US sizes. THe Nordstrom reviews for the specific item I want say that it runs TTS. I guess I'll go with that. Thanks for your input!
