I bought a M. I’m normally a size 10-12 up top and I was a bit hesitant to maybe size up after reading reviews that it is tight at the chest. I needn’t have worried as it fits perfectly with no pulling the chest at all. I do have smallish boobs though (34B)
Please never stop making the Olly jackets! These are my favorite. I love how they are the perfect top layer. The material is so durable, and I love the variety of colors. I usually wear a US Women's size 18/20. I ordered the XL for the perfect oversized fit.
I do like the design and I will buy more feom this lovely brand. However, as a 10-12, I though I’d order a 12, so the item wouldn’t be too tight around my hourglass hips etc. but I’ve found they are rather huge dungarees, extremely baggy around the legs etc. I probably should have ordered an 8 to have a better fit. But they are at least long enough and well made.
Hi E,

I love these trousers they are really comfortable and the fabric is super soft. True to size. The high waistband keeps everything in place
I don't think that I will ever take them off! Elasticated drawstring waist, perfect for bloat days. Fun print, lovely colour, soft fabric. I am short so these are the perfect length on me.
I own a bunch of L&Y original dungas, I ordered these in a size 30. I’m usually a 28 in the originals and these are slightly snug in the 30 - I’m used to the sizing being all over the place depending on which design you order but having to worry about getting a correct fit even ordering the same design is another step down in quality.
Hi Bee,
Thank you for taking the time to review our Original Dungarees in Maria Print, we're really sorry to hear that they aren't fitting as expected. A member of our team has reached out to look into this for you.
All the best,

Fabulous jumper, great quality and good fit. I bought size M and I’m a size 12, a boxy fit which is just perfect with a long sleeved top underneath or worn without.
Nice and sturdy but it could have been a bit longer.
It is my first order and i am happily surprised. I am usually a UK12 and I am 5ft 11. I went for a 30 long and it fits perfectly.
I could only give 4 stars because as a tall person, i always look how tall the models are, but some items have so much model's names and heights that it is very confusing (for ex the Ragan jumpsuit) to understand how it would fit on me.
Last year I bought the Leo mesh greta in brighton in XL (gives a boxy wide Tee look) wich I love so was really happy when I saw the new lovely Black Marie print mesh top. Bought it straight away in XL. It arrived this weekend. It's so much shorter then my Leo print. I find this really strange that it's such a big difference whilst is the same size. I find this really frustrating. This makes me less likely to just buy online cause sizing is just not trustworthy. The print is really lovely though!
Love everything about this- the fit, the length, the comfy waistband, the pockets, the print. New fave!
I usually wear size 12 but like dungarees a little baggy and size 14, regular, is perfect. The style is very flattering.
Wonderful colour. Have many tops to pair with them. Looking forward to better weather to wear them
Learnt that although i like patterned trousers, it is very difficult to match tops.
I have many Alexa trousers, find them useful.
Although i wish i had waited 4 days to order, i could have bought them on offer and saved £11.
And I can't seem to wear anything but them!!! Great buy.
I bought these in the black in December and they fit perfectly, so much so that I ordered them in the mid wash blue. When those arrived they were larger and longer despite being the same size. I measured both pairs and the blue were 3cm longer! I was told this was within tolerance but I returned them as it made them unwearable for me. I have now ordered them in the indigo blue and they are perfect like the black, and I will definitely order more styles. For the record I'm a size 12/14 hourglass figure and my bum is definitely not flat and these are a great and flattering style for me!
I love these pants! I’m a teacher and I get more compliments on these pants at work than any other article of clothing I own. The colors look brighter to me in person and really pop. If you’re familiar with the Alexa trousers from Lucy and Yak, the cotton for these is a little thinner giving them a more flowy fit.
I was very pleased when I opened the bag, as I thought the light material would be great when the weather gets warmer. I was very disappointed when I tried them on. I’ve got other Yaks which fit my pretty normal 14/16 shape. These fitted on the chest, bottom and hips but were enormous at waist level - shaped like a bucket. They’d make a great choice for advanced pregnancy. Taking the waist in would have distorted the big pockets so I’m sadly returning them. Maybe they should be marketed as ‘maternity’.
These are beautiful trousers. I love the pattern and the style. I ordered size 14 which would be my usual but due to the elastic waist around the back there is definitely room to size down. I will be returning the size 14 and ordering a size 12 as this was the only issue I had with them. They have the potential to be unflattering but I believe if the fit is right and they are styled well then they are a winner. Then again it’s up to the person wearing them. If they are comfortable then that’s all that matters. I personally would like mine to fit better around the waist. Still a 5 stars product for me despite having to return and order a smaller size.
Great trousers..fit is lovely..
I love these pants! They are so cute and comfy, but they run SO BIG and are probably a foot longer than I was expecting. If you aren’t sure on sizing, size down for sureeeeee.
I would recommend sizing down as this jacket is very oversized. I originally bought a size large, but I exchanged for a medium, which looks and fits a lot better. I'm a size 16-18 UK and can fit in an Olly size medium jacket comfortably.
