I'm normally a size 14 in most places but I am thinking of getting a few bits from Jack Wills after Christmas.

Their sizing only goes up to a size 14 and am wondering what kind of cut their clothes are. I've heard people having to up a size etc.

Does anybody know?



I'm a size 10-12, i bought skinny jeans in a size 12, a hoodie in a size 14 cos i wanted it to be snuggly and not too tight, tunic/dress tops i.e fashion top in a size 12, duffle coat in a size 14 so that i could fit jumpers underneath it.

I find the sizing a little bit on the small side, but it depends what you're after really. The jeans in a 14 should be fine, as well as the fashion tops and knitwear. It depends what you're buying really and how fitted you want your stuff.

The JW stuff I have is all size 8, and fits me perfectly. I'm a size 6-8 in almost every brand, though. I do find that my boobs just fit in my JW stuff without stretching across them, and I'm only a 30C

Yeah that was my problem with my hoodie....i only have B cup boobs but the size 12 was too tight across my boobs, and loose on my waist/stomach. So yeha, i have tiny boobs and even that was an issue for me :p:
I find it runs large..I'm a size 12 (although with my meals lately, I wouldn't be surprised to hit 14!!) and some of the JW tops are really big on me. I do have a size 10 tshirt that fits perfectly. Also, I tried on a size 8 shirt which I found to be really really big. I think you're better off trying stuff on, I wouldn't know about the jeans and stuff but the tops are big.

I actually find that some Jack Wills things are too big and some are too small. I'm a size 10-12 and normally have to get the T-Shirts in a 12 and any other tops in an 8. Hoodies I normally get in a 12 so they're not too big, never bought any bottoms from there so I can't say what they're like.

I think it's pretty true to size.

Some of my stuff are 10s, some 8s. That's true for most places I shop at.

Bear in mind a lot of things, especially tops, are made to be worn baggy or loose.

i buy my jack wills stuff off ebay haha :colondollar:
i've found that i'm a size smaller in jw than i am in other brands - i'm usually a 10 but i'm an 8/10 in their clothes. hoodiewise though, you might wanna get one size bigger because they're fitted quite tightly around the chest - not sure on their oversized ones though.
If im a size 12, would a size 14 jw hoodie fit??
Im a size 12, will a size 14 jack wills hoodie fit??
