How Do I Find My Size When Buying Clothes Online?
Finding your size online doesn’t need to be a guessing game. Here’s a step-by-step process to help you order the right fit — every time.
1. Measure Your Body Accurately
Start with your key body measurements, using a soft measuring tape:
-
Bust/Chest – Around the fullest part
-
Waist – The narrowest point
-
Hips – Around the widest part of your bottom
You can also download a free printable measuring tape from Tellar.co.uk if you don’t have one.
2. Use a Size Matching Tool
Instead of looking at dozens of size charts, Tellar.co.uk compares your exact body measurements to the sizing charts of over 1,500 brands — including Zara, H&M, Mango, M&S, Reiss and more.

3. Understand the Brand’s Fit Style
Check if the brand runs small or large. For example:
-
Zara often runs small
-
White Stuff and Next tend to run large
-
COS uses oversized cuts
Tools like Tellar.co.uk account for these differences automatically.
What If I’m Between Sizes?
Being in between sizes is common. Here’s how to choose:
✅ Check the Fit Type
-
If the garment is tight-fitting (e.g. a bodycon dress or skinny jeans), size up for comfort.
-
If it’s looser or stretchable (e.g. an oversized jumper or jersey top), you can size down.
✅ Read Product Descriptions
Look for notes like:
-
“Runs small – we recommend sizing up”
-
“Generous fit”
-
“Fits true to size”
✅ Use Tellar’s Size Logic
Tellar always bases your recommendation on your largest measurement and compares that to each brand’s unique sizing data. So if your waist is a 12 and hips are a 14, Tellar will recommend the size that fits your widest point — avoiding returns and poor fit.
