Headed to the Mango outlet this weekend—they’re running 20% off the Violetta plus-size line🎉

Rachel Kim2 said:Need help figuring out my dress size... I heard ASOS curve dresses run bigger than their actual sizing, so I’m looking for some insight if anyone has experience here. I'm torn between a UK 18 and a UK 20. My measurements—bare, no bra or clothes—are 108cm bust, 97cm waist, and 120cm hips. Looking at 's version of these dresses, the bust seems to be the main factor, which puts me in a bind. Based on the numbers, a 20 might be safer since I don't want anything too tight, but if they really do run large, it might end up being way too big. I've read through all the ASOS threads and I'm still just as lost as when I started. 🤦

My bust is 107 cm, so I usually grab a UK 16 in the regular line—though, mind you, almost everything I buy has some stretch. A friend of mine who typically orders a UK 18 or 20 in the Curve line actually has a bust around 115-120 cm. I’d suggest going with the UK 18; I've seen enough feedback to know that an ASOS Curve 18 is definitely roomier than a standard 18.😉 A UK 20 would almost certainly swallow you whole.
