Does COS Run Small or Large?
COS is known for minimalist cuts and intentionally oversized fits. However, sizing still varies based on category and fabric.
πΉ General fit guide:
-
Tops & Dresses: Often intentionally oversized β some customers prefer to size down for a closer fit
-
Trousers & Skirts: True to size, with a structured waist; may feel snug without stretch
-
Tailoring (blazers, coats): Designed for boxy silhouettes, often cut large
-
Menswear: Relaxed, minimalist cuts β true to size, but generous in width
π§ Tellar.co.uk adjusts automatically for COSβs style and fit

Why COS Sizing Can Be Hard to Judge
-
Oversized pieces vary by garment β a size S could feel like a UK 12β14
-
Structured tailoring may fit more closely at the waist or shoulders
-
Fabric weight (wool, linen, cotton twill) affects drape and perceived size
-
Menβs relaxed cuts may feel baggy unless styled deliberately
