What’s My Clothes Size at Aligne? Does Aligne Run Big or Small?

Aligne is a rising star in British fashion—known for its clean lines, minimalist tailoring, and strong commitment to sustainability. With an aesthetic that blends effortless polish with practical wearability, Aligne is favoured for wardrobe staples like sharp blazers, tailored trousers, shirt dresses, and structured co-ords.

But while their ethos is transparent, their sizing? Not always.

Does Aligne run big or small?

And how do you find your perfect Aligne size—without relying on vague size charts or ordering two sizes just in case?

This post breaks it down and introduces Tellar.co.uk, the UK’s leading free sizing tool that calculates your perfect Aligne size in real time based on your body measurements.


Does Aligne Run Big or Small?

Aligne generally runs true to size, but their structured, tailored fit can feel slim or snug in some areas—especially in:

  • Blazers

  • Tailored dresses

  • High-waisted trousers

Many customers with curvier or athletic builds may find they need to size up for comfort across the hips, bust, or shoulders. On the other hand, Aligne’s shirt dresses and relaxed styles often run roomier and can accommodate more body shapes.

So while sizing is consistent, fit depends heavily on cut and fabric.


Aligne's Fit Philosophy

Aligne focuses on timeless silhouettes with a modern twist, often favouring:

  • Structured tailoring over stretch

  • Minimalist cuts with clean lines

  • Premium, rigid fabrics like organic cotton, twill, and recycled blends

This makes their pieces feel elegant and polished—but leaves little room for body variation if the size isn’t right.

What About the Fabrics?

Aligne’s signature fabrics include:

  • Organic cotton poplin – crisp, structured, no stretch

  • Recycled polyester blends – structured or flowy depending on cut

  • Rigid denim and twill – especially in trousers and jumpsuits

  • Lyocell and modal – found in fluid shirts and tops, drapey and forgiving

Each fabric performs differently, which is why a size 12 in a poplin blazer may feel completely different from a size 12 in a lyocell shirt.

While helpful, this chart won’t tell you:

  • Which garment is cut close to the body

  • Whether you need more room at the bust, waist or hips

  • How a cotton shirt vs. a fitted jumpsuit behaves on your figure

That’s where Tellar.co.uk comes in.

Aligne sizing is largely true to size, but structured tailoring, high waists, and rigid fabrics can make items feel snug if you’re in between sizes or curvier.
