Ted Baker womens suit sizing

Options
Hi all

Has anyone any experience of what the sizing/ fit is like for Ted Baker ladies?

I want to buy a suit from there for work- half price in the sale before anyone points out it's not very moneysaving :) I was assuming I would be a 3 (they say this is equivalent to a 12) but does anyone have any advice about how generous/ tight there sizing is?

Cheers!

    It's been a while since I bought anything there, but yes, a 3 was about a 12 in my experience. The trousers always tend to be quite long as well - great for me as I'm quite tall, but if you're short, budget to get them taken up.

    I do actually think their suits are good value for money, especially on sale. They are cut so beautifully, and so well made that they last a very long time!

    Thanks for your reply. I'm tallish (5' 8") and usually wear heels so I hope that wouldn't be a problem. Glad to hear 3 is a good 12- I sometimes have to go to a 14, and (less usually) a 10 (depending on the shop) but would hope as it's not cheap rubbish that fit would be less of a problem!

    As the sale price is not much different from the cost of a suit from eg Next that I'm getting a good deal.

    Thanks again!
