banana republic pants question?

bloomie · Marc Jacobs

I ended up ordering them in a size 6. I hope they work.

I had the martins last year and found they fit about the same as gap long & lean. I wore a 6 in both.

I think banana runs a bit on the big side. I actually usually size down in there pants.

Lilykind · Hermes

I think you should be fine...BR pants have always run large (I've always been a 4 in the Martins) but Express Editors seem to be running larger as well (also a 4 there). I haven't tried on anything at either store in the past year or so though.

Kitty · Hermes

I personally think BR pants run huge. I am a size 4 in their pants..but usually a size 8 anywhere else.

I think they run about a size big, and I find that they sometimes stretch out even bigger (depending on what its made of). Express definately runs smaller than BR. Good thing theres free returns in store!

Yes. I have a feeling they are going to be too big. I called and tried to cancel this morning, but they had already processed. They CS rep put in a request to cancel, but she said it they might still ship. The only problem is that the closest BR to me is 1hr 20 min away.
