Nobody’s Child has rapidly grown into one of the UK’s most loved fashion brands, known for its sustainable fabrics, vintage-inspired dresses, and collaborations with influencers and high-street retailers like M&S. But despite its accessible price point and ethical ethos, sizing confusion is still common — especially when shopping online.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how Nobody’s Child fits, what’s worth investing in, and how to find your perfect size in seconds using Tellar.co.uk — the UK’s leading sizing tool for 1,500+ brands.


🧵 Why Nobody’s Child Sizing Isn’t Always Straightforward

Nobody’s Child offers inclusive sizing from UK 4 to UK 24, but sizing can be inconsistent across categories due to:

  • Varying fabrics (eco-viscose, organic cotton, recycled polyester)

  • Mix of fitted and relaxed silhouettes

  • Changing design cuts across seasonal collections and collabs

It’s not unusual for a UK 10 in one dress to fit like a UK 8 in another — especially when the item features:

  • Bust seams or shirring

  • Puff sleeves with narrow shoulders

  • Cinched or empire-line waists

That’s why using Tellar.co.uk to get personalised size guidance is the smartest way to shop Nobody’s Child — and avoid costly returns.
