What’s My Clothes Size at Missguided? Does Missguided Run Big or Small?
Missguided is a fast-fashion favourite known for bold silhouettes, body-hugging fits, trend-led styles and club-ready occasionwear. Whether you’re shopping corset tops, ruched midi dresses, faux leather co-ords or statement trousers, Missguided is unapologetically bold, curve-accentuating and made for confident dressing.
But with stretch fabrics, plunging necklines, and short hems, one sizing question constantly comes up:
Does Missguided run big or small?
And how do you figure out your size without trial and error?
This guide breaks it down—and introduces Tellar.co.uk, the UK’s most accurate free sizing tool that gives you your exact Missguided size in real time, based on your measurements and the fit of each item.
Does Missguided Run Big or Small?
Missguided tends to run small, especially in:
-
Bodycon dresses
-
Corset and crop tops
-
Fitted trousers and skinny jeans
-
Plunge or structured bodices with minimal stretch
However:
-
Oversized jumpers, tees, joggers and lounge sets often run true to size or generous
-
Stretch co-ords and jersey basics are cut tighter but forgiving in fabric
-
Outerwear and puffers are usually true to size with some layering room
If you’re in between sizes, have a curvier build, or prefer more movement:
-
Size up in fitted woven pieces, especially non-stretch satin or poplin
-
Stick to size or size down in boxy or relaxed cuts
Why Missguided Sizing Can Be Confusing
1. Fitted is the Default
Missguided’s aesthetic leans body-conscious, with a focus on:
-
Cinched waists
-
Tight sleeves
-
Curve-enhancing seams
So even a “true to size” item may feel snug—particularly at the bust, waist or hips.
2. Fabric Variability
Common fabrics include:
-
Stretch jersey and scuba – soft and body-hugging
-
Satin, organza and crepe – rigid, unforgiving
-
PU leather – structured with minimal stretch
-
Knits and fleece – generous and comfy
Two size 12 dresses in different materials will fit very differently.
3. Size Chart Gaps
Missguided offers standard UK sizing (6–18), but limited advice per product. Most listings don’t indicate if an item runs large or small—making trial and error common without guidance.
