So I think I am falling down the mmm rabbit hole and may order some things from Lands End.
I desperately need new pants as my are either too big (bragplaint) or are so worn. Do they run true to size? If you have bought pants what style do you recommend. Do the dresses run true to size or big?
Dresses run a little big in my experience, especially the fit and flare; I found their sheath dresses to be more TTS. The only pants I have from LE are stretchy ones from their Starfish line, which probably isn't the best way to judge, but I found those to be TTS.
I actually had good experiences using their size charts and measuring myself. The one time I ordered my "normal" size without checking the chart it was a dress and came a little big. I don't know if using the size chart would have directed me to get a size smaller because I didn't go back and check.
I agree. Pants TTS, shirts run big, dresses run big. I shop at LE almost exclusively now, there's nowhere else to shop here. Plus I love their stuff. I'm 5'3" 150 lbs and a size L shirt everywhere else, but size medium at LE. I'm a size 14 pants (thanks mommy pooch) but a size 10 fit n flare dress b/c they run big.
