You're getting more material for the same price, it's the smart move.

One simple way to stick it to the man, with style. I always size up at Uniqlo it's good praxis.

@sipang thank you thank you. I’m a 12 in Nike so sounds like I should go straight to a 46

Does anybody here have much experience with Auralee? I want to try these but it’s hard to find measurements other than their website...

I just want to know if a 5 is right for a 34/50

some of their pants seem like I might be a 6 and some look like a 5 would be perfect. But that specific cut I just kind find any other comps.

They're one of my recent favorites. I've found the measurements on their website are generally pretty accurate. I have a pair of this seasons twisted denim in a Size 3 and they fit like a 29, which is what they're listed at on their site. I don't believe they go up to Size 6, but correct me if I'm wrong.

I’ve definitely seen size 6s, at least in tops. Ive liked what they’ve been doing for a bit but never pulled the trigger, mostly because of sizing but they seem easier to find now so I can buy from places with easy returns

Yeah, I'm hesitant about their pants because I'm not quite sure even the 6 would fit comfortably--I'm around a true 36 waist. I've recently purchased a jacket and cotton knit from them, however, and love the fit of both in a size 5. I'm about a 43 chest.

Definitely give the brand a try. Everything they do is incredibly well done (fabric selection, color palette, silhouettes, proportions, construction etc etc).

One caveat, similar to Lemaire, they seem to size up a bit for lookbook / styled shots. The TTS usually isn't so drapey and loungey, but still nice relaxed cuts.
