If you’ve ever tried shopping Frame’s signature denim or effortless elevated basics, you’ll know the brand is built on clean silhouettes, luxurious fabrics, and a distinctly LA-meets-London aesthetic. But like many contemporary labels, Frame sizing doesn’t always line up with UK high street expectations. That’s where Tellar.co.uk comes in.
We’ve analysed Frame’s full size data—jeans, shirts, jackets, and more—and matched it to thousands of UK body profiles. So whether you’re new to Frame or upgrading your capsule wardrobe, we help you find the right size the first time.

Is Frame True to Size?
Frame jeans and clothing run slightly small in certain cuts, particularly in their high-rise denim and fitted blouses. UK shoppers often find that:
-
Frame jeans tend to run half a size smaller than UK brands like Whistles or M&S.
-
Tops and blazers are tailored and can feel snug across the shoulders.
-
Stretch denim offers some flexibility, but rigid styles may require sizing up.
Instead of trying to work it out from a vague size guide, Tellar.co.uk lets you input your actual chest, waist, and hip measurements, then compares those directly to Frame’s sizing structure.

Frame Fits: What to Expect
1. Le High Skinny / Le Skinny de Jeanne
Frame’s signature skinny jeans are one of their bestsellers, and for good reason. The cut is flattering, elongating, and versatile—but sizing can be tricky:
-
They run tight at the waist and thigh.
-
If you’re between sizes, we recommend going one size up.

2. Le Jane & Le High Straight
These more modern, straight-leg styles offer less stretch and a slightly looser fit through the calf:
-
Rigid denim styles may require sizing up.
-
These styles tend to work well for curvier body types.
3. Frame Tops, Blouses & Blazers
Frame’s clothing line has expanded well beyond denim. Their shirts and jackets are:
-
Cut slim in the arms and shoulders
-
Designed with a European tailored look
-
Often sized in US 0–12, which can confuse UK shoppers

Common Sizing Mistakes in Frame
-
Assuming all denim has stretch – Some of Frame’s most popular cuts are rigid, especially in their “Le Jane” and “Original” styles.
-
Using UK dress size instead of measurements – A UK 10 can mean very different things in high-street vs premium brands.
-
Ignoring hip measurements – Most Frame jeans are cut narrow in the hip and thigh.

Final Thoughts: Don’t Let Premium Sizing Catch You Out
Frame is a brand built on elevated fits—but that often means a tighter, leaner cut than many UK brands. Instead of guessing or relying on general conversion charts, measure once and shop confidently.
