Whether you're picnicking in the park with your girlfriends or hitting the town for one of the hottest nights out of the year, ASOS Design has something to suit you. Spilt into a whole range of different segments, including ASOS Petite, ASOS Tall, ASOS Maternity and ASOS Curve, they've really gone the whole way to ensuring that everyone is catered for. However, despite the extensive amounts of clothing, you'll still want to know how on the whole ASOS Design fits. Do you have to size up for ASOS Design clothes? Do they fit true to size or do they run small? We'll answer those questions and more for you in this guide.

Just so we're all on the same page with regards to the different ranges: ASOS Petite caters for girls 5'3 and under, whilst ASOS Tall is designed for ladies 5'9 and above. So when wondering, 'How does ASOS Tall fit?', remember that this would be great for getting that extra length on the leg if you find regular-length jeans too short. You can check out our dedicated article on tall jeans for more info! ASOS Curve is ASOS' very own inclusive sizing range, including sizes from a UK16 all the way to UK30. And, well, ASOS Maternity... this one speaks for itself! Specially-made, hot-af clothing for those mommas-to-be.

Having literally everything from evening gowns and jeans, to baseball caps and pjs, means that sizing can get a little confusing, however generally ASOS Design fits true to size. Having those separate sizing ranges means that you can most often find your perfect fit with less trouble than other retailers.

How Does ASOS Design Clothing Fit?

  • FIT: ASOS Design runs slightly larger than other retailers, but generally you are okay buying your usual size.
  • COMFORT: With such an extensive range of clothing, comfort differs from garment to garment. Although these are quality pieces and we've never had an uncomfortable experience; be that evening wear or loungewear.
  • PRICE: ASOS Design is excellent value for money! A little more expensive than say COLLUSION or New Look, but you absolutely get what you pay for.

The beauty of ASOS is their above-and-beyond guidance when it comes to finding the perfect size for you. To begin, check what size the model is wearing and watch the video to see how loose or fitted the garment appears. Next, read the reviews! ASOS introducing reviews has really been a Godsend. Not all pieces will have reviews - especially if they're brand new to site - but if they do it's really good to read them for buyers' feedback. This way, if everyone is saying they had to size up, your best bet is to size up.

If you're an avid ASOS shopper, then you'll have personalised recommendations for each clothing item. Make sure you answer the questions asked to ensure that these recommendations are spot on. ASOS will also take into consideration what you've bought before and remember what you've sent back for being 'too big' or 'too small'.

How does ASOS Design clothing fit?

I've always bought ASOS Design clothing in my true size. I find it runs a little bigger compared to other retailers, but I quite like the baggy style, especially for loungewear.

Is ASOS Design clothing comfortable?

Definitely! Although ASOS Design clothes range from out-out clothes to gym gear, everything I've ever bought has been comfortable. You know you're pretty much always guaranteed a good quality item.

Is ASOS Design good quality?

You definitely get what you pay for. Despite it not being the most expensive, or the cheapest, it's worth the money you pay. If I was looking to spend less I'd go for COLLUSION or to my local Primark, but you can't beat some of the amazing ASOS Design sweatshirts and tank tops!

How do you style your ASOS Design pieces?

This is a tricky question to answer when there are so many different items you could buy. However, the great thing about ASOS Design is that you can always get something to match - I never come off ASOS having bought only one thing!

“You probably have ASOS Design in your wardrobe without even realising!”

Does ASOS Design clothing run big?

ASOS Design clothing fits a little more comfortably than other retailers, as ASOS are much more generous in their sizing. However, I still get my true size whenever I shop as I appreciate a little more room, especially after a big meal!

Is ASOS Design clothing comfortable?

It really depends on what you're buying. By nature, joggers are bound to be more comfortable than a mini dress, but even then I've never bought an uncomfortable piece of clothing.

How do you style your ASOS Design pieces?

I love pairing my ASOS Design clothing with other ASOS Design accessories. They have a whole load of cute handbags and sunnies that go perfectly with their clothing.

“ASOS' in-house brand is one of the best I've come across in terms of sizing. You know what you're getting every single time!”

Does ASOS Design clothing run small?

No, if anything it runs big. However, I would still recommend buying true to size, unless the size guide or reviews on that piece of clothing say otherwise. Honestly - ASOS reviews are my new best friend. My returns have halved!

Is ASOS Design good quality?

For the price, you can't get better. It's definitely better quality than other places I've tried... For example, their white tees are actually white and not see-through!

How do you style your ASOS Design items?

My favourite ASOS Design item I own is a pair of mom jeans - I swear by them every time! Having waist/leg measurements means it's easy to get the fit spot on compared to when the sizes are 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 etc. I style them with a cute, graphic ASOS Design cropped tee, with my hair in a claw clip for the ultimate Y2K look.
