Our advice

Identify the fit first. In urban pieces, the right size depends on whether you want to keep volume or sharpen the silhouette.

Why fit leads the decision

In Pull&Bear and Bershka, the label does not tell the full story. An oversized S can measure larger than a fitted M. Read the fit name and look at how the garment falls.

What to check before buying

For denim and cargos, check rise, waist and leg width. For T-shirts, decide whether you want the intended volume. For jackets, see whether the dropped shoulder is design or size.

SIZES tip: use this guide as a practical reference and always confirm the official brand size chart when the garment includes its own measurements.

How to use SIZES

Save notes by fit: 'wide leg comfortable', 'cargo too long', 'cropped better one size up'. These details help a lot with trend-led brands.

Final recommendation

Do not automatically size down an oversized piece. First decide whether that volume is part of the look you want.
