Also to know is, does Lipsy come up small?
If you know the brand runs small then just order a couple of sizes bigger no big deal for you guys. Being 4'11 and very petite, Lipsy was one of the very very few brands which ran down to a size 4 petite that fit me perfectly.
Likewise, is phase 8 size small? I am normally a size 6 but I wear the Phase 8 size 8. So I would say their sizes come up small. Then again, the dresses can be stretchy so you should be able to take a bigger size than normal.
Keeping this in view, are coast clothes small?
If you are Coast shaped you're fine in your normal size: not big breasted, small waist (they refer to it in every garment description as “your narrowest part”) average hips.
