What is sizing like at Liberowe?

Liberowe runs slim, structured and properly tailored — its pieces come in letter sizes (roughly XS to M) cut close to the body, so for most women your true size is the right call, and you'd only size up if you want a jacket to skim rather than hug. This is a small, London-based luxury house, not a high-street label churning out generous, forgiving fits, so the cut is deliberate and architectural. If you've ever slipped on a beautifully made blazer that fit like it was drawn around you, that's the Liberowe intention.

I learned the hard way years ago that luxury tailoring rewards precision and punishes guesswork. I once ordered a gorgeous structured jacket a size up "to be safe" for a wedding, then spent the whole day with the shoulders sliding off mine — it looked borrowed, and no amount of confident posture fixed it. With a brand at this price point, that mistake is an expensive one. So let's get it right first time.

Who Liberowe Actually Is

Founded by Central Saint Martins graduate Talia Loubaton, Liberowe is a London label built on slick, genderless tailoring. The house signatures are the little black jacket, sharp blazers, the perfect white shirt, and tweed and velvet — with Nehru collars and a blend of Indian Maharaja grandeur and '70s Parisian androgyny running through everything. Pieces are tailor-made and hand-finished, stocked at the likes of Liberty London and Saks, and priced firmly in investment territory (think several hundred to a few thousand pounds). Knowing that helps you understand the fit: this isn't fast fashion, it's considered tailoring, and it's cut that way.

How the Sizing Really Runs

Here's exactly what to keep in mind before you commit:

It's a slim, European cut. Liberowe skims the body. It isn't tight for the sake of it, but it isn't roomy either — if you live in oversized, slouchy blazers, this isn't that mood.
Shoulders are everything. With structured tailoring, the shoulder seam should sit precisely on your shoulder bone. Get that right and the rest can be tweaked.
The size range is narrow. Stockists tend to carry XS to M, so anyone above roughly a UK 14–16 may struggle to find their size. Check current stock before you fall in love.
Between sizes? Size up. A tailor can always take a jacket in at the waist, sleeve or hem — but can't conjure fabric that isn't there. Buy for the shoulders and chest, then alter.
Ignore the label number, trust your measurements. Take your bust, waist and hip in centimetres and match those. Never assume your usual high-street size translates to a designer cut.

Styling It Like a Stylist

The beauty of Liberowe is that it does the heavy lifting for you. A single well-cut black jacket is the most useful thing in any wardrobe — I've worn the same sharp blazer to a funeral, a product launch and a parents' evening in one fortnight, and it behaved impeccably at all three. My advice:

Let the tailoring be the outfit. A crisp white shirt, straight trousers and one of these jackets needs nothing else.
Lean into the androgyny. Roll the sleeves, add a loafer, skip the fussy jewellery and let the cut do the talking.
Velvet and tweed pieces read as evening or deep autumn — keep the styling minimal so the fabric speaks for itself.

Where to Shop the Look (and the Alternatives)

If Liberowe is out of budget, out of stock, or simply out of your size range, here's where I'd send clients for similarly sharp tailoring.

High street:

Reiss — consistently the best contemporary tailoring on the high street; clean lines and a genuinely grown-up finish.
Jigsaw — quietly excellent blazers, cut with a real eye for proportion and understatement.
Whistles — modern, slightly androgynous tailoring that nods to the same mood as Liberowe.
Massimo Dutti — European cut and elevated fabrics at a fraction of designer prices.
Me&Em — clever, longline tailoring engineered to flatter and lengthen the leg.
Mango — genuinely impressive blazers each season and brilliant value for a trend-led piece.
Hobbs — classic British tailoring if you want something more traditional and structured.

Premium:

Sandro — Parisian sharpness that suits Liberowe's '70s-Paris DNA perfectly.
Joseph — minimalist, beautifully cut tailoring that ages well and never shouts.
By Malene Birger — elevated Scandinavian tailoring with a soft, modern edge.

Luxury / designer:

Saint Laurent — the spiritual home of androgynous Parisian tailoring; the original Le Smoking.
Max Mara — peerless for investment coats and refined, structured tailoring you'll keep for decades.

And two off-radar independents I genuinely love:

Blazé Milano — the cult Italian house that does almost nothing but exceptional blazers, with the same intentional, considered cut.
The Deck London — British suiting drafted specifically to female proportions, so the fit comes out uncannily good straight off the rail.
