The H&M Thread #2

8 is a 34 in H&M, but you're right, it is usually a 36

ah, it makes sense now.. Thanks for clearing that up guys. So a UK8 it usually the smallest size for H&M? Strange..

 

[honeycombchild]

Well, for most departments yes. Like I said, some go down to a UK 6. However because of their sizing system a UK8 in H&M should be smaller than another brand's 8.

So when they mean size 8 and write 34, are they really meaning a 36? Or the other way around, ignore the 8 and it's a 34?

^ignore the 8! It's a 34 in the UK.

^ignore the 8! It's a 34 in the UK.

Thank you. I think I finally understood it.

 

[caroulemapoule]

^It took me some time too!

I tried them on in store, they're great, although they're not actually cut to be high waisted it didn't seem, it's more the way they've been styled.

As they certainly do not look like that cool when you've got them on! Ha

Alrighty thanks! Finally I get it. So Divided (black) in particular, does it usually start with UK 6 or 8? For us here, EU 34 is usually the smallest for Divided with occaisionally but rarely a EU 32..

 

[honeycombchild]

Divided Black starts at a UK 6. For sure.

^Does it even matter? H&M sizes are all over the place anyway. I can get the very same item twice in the same size and one will be much bigger than the other one and things like that. Same with Zara, it's always hit or miss.

 

[MissyJG]

^ yeah they are so sloppy! I've noticed that too!

I got such a pretty lovely tea dress the other day from a much better H&M than my local ones

I bought earrings from H&M today! I just love them and they are so cheap!

I saw the camel coat in one of the Copenhagen stores today and was really dissapointed. The wool felt rather coarse and it just looked kinda cheap.

 

[The_Ida]

^Then it should be in Århus soon...bummer about the material. In which store did you see it?

 

[entirely officia]

I'm heading to h&m today. Hoping I find something. I've been underwhelmed the past 3 weeks.

Has anyone seen this bag in stores yet? I think I'm in love

I went to H&M on regents street today to check out the wool coat as well and was really dissapointed..plus only m/l s were left so I didnt even try it on. I did get the ruched high waisted skirt thats availabe in that flesh and black colour. got it in flesh and a long oversized t shirt and a ring. I liked the styling of most of thethings in store but like usual,nothing I wanted was there or was there but not in my size

 

[fritze]

The one near amagertorv... they had all sizes left. I wanted to try it on, but couldnt figure out the button, so I just left it

Maybe it looks better on!
