Variability and caveats
Cut
Relaxed cuts usually add ease, so they can feel roomier than the brand’s baseline.
Fabric stretch
Rigid fabrics usually make the sizing tendency show up more clearly because there is less give.
Styling
This brand is fairly consistent, but styling can still shift the feel when a piece is meant to be sharply fitted or deliberately oversized.
