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

Boohoo is one of the UK’s biggest fast-fashion retailers, known for trend-led clothing at ultra-affordable prices. From bodycon dresses and two-piece co-ords to oversized hoodies, tailored jumpsuits and curve-accentuating denim, Boohoo offers fashion-forward pieces that change with the season—and sometimes with the week.

But shoppers constantly ask:
Does Boohoo run big or small?
And how can you figure out your perfect size when the styles (and fabrics) vary so much?

This guide breaks down Boohoo sizing by category—and introduces Tellar.co.uk, the UK’s most accurate free sizing tool that gives you your exact Boohoo size in real time, based on your body measurements and the fit of each garment.


Does Boohoo Run Big or Small?

Boohoo generally runs small, especially in:

  • Bodycon and occasion dresses

  • Corset and structured tops

  • Fitted trousers and jumpsuits

However:

  • Joggers, hoodies and oversized shirts often run true to size or generously

  • Stretch jersey and co-ords are forgiving and can run large

  • Outerwear varies—some puffers are roomy, others snug, depending on cut

If you’re between sizes, curvy, or fuller-busted, it’s common to:

  • Size up in non-stretch and structured garments

  • Size down in oversized or stretchy styles


Why Boohoo Sizing Feels Inconsistent

1. Ultra-Trend-Driven Fit

Boohoo’s fashion DNA is rooted in:

  • Snatched waists

  • Thigh-slit dresses

  • Cut-outs, ruching, corsetry
    All of which mean fit is intentionally tight and figure-hugging—especially at the bust, waist and hips.

2. Fast Production Model

New styles are dropped daily. But that means garments:

  • May follow different fit blocks depending on the supplier

  • Might vary slightly in measurements across seemingly similar products

3. Limited Product Notes

Most product pages don’t explain whether something runs small or large—so guessing becomes inevitable unless you use a tool like Tellar.co.uk.


Boohoo Fit Overview by Garment Type

Garment Type Fit Behaviour Tellar Sizing Tip
Bodycon dresses Tight at bust, waist, hip Size up for comfort or curves
Corset tops Rigid at bust and underbust Size up if fuller-chested or broad-shouldered
Co-ords (jersey) Stretchy and clingy True to size or down if petite
Oversized tees/hoodies Relaxed and roomy Stick to size or down for neater silhouette
Tailored trousers Slim-cut, high waist Size up for hips or structured waistbands
PU/leather pieces Minimal stretch Size up for movement
Jumpsuits & playsuits Structured fit, shorter torso Size up if tall or busty
Loungewear sets Soft and roomy True to size or down

Boohoo Size Chart (UK)

6 80 62 86
8 84 66 90
10 88 70 94
12 93 75 99

24 123 105 129

Boohoo also offers Petite, Plus and Tall ranges—but the base fit across most core products still assumes:

  • Narrow shoulders

  • Standard torso length

  • True-to-label sizing only if you fall within their average proportions

That’s why Tellar.co.uk is the easiest way to shop accurately.
