Anyone have any experience with Asos maternity? Mostly curious as to how the sizing runs - if they are more like H&M sizing or if they are more like true US vanity sizes.
I bought a bunch of maternity stuff from asos and found it to be a little on the big side. I think that's because it's maternity though. I like their mat clothes. They're actually fashionable. I don't know who decided pregnant women should dress like old ladies.

I just ordered a bunch of stuff from there but haven't received it yet. You know that English sizes are different than US sizes right? I'm a US 8 but ordered everything in a UK12. I actually used their sizing guide which give you hip and chest measurements, so hopefully it's accurate.
Can I just say how ridiculous US sizes are. Last time I went shopping (before I was pregnant) I ended up with clothes in sizes 2,6,8,10, xs,m,l depending on the store!

Yeah, that's why I was asking. Like H&M labels there clothes with a us and an uk size but their us size is not like typical us vanity sizing! So wasn't sure if ASOS did the same or if they were for real US vanity sizes
I'm in the UK and wear a UK10, so a US6. I have to say that American sizing is a little on the generous side compared to UK sizing. I can usually fit into a US4 and even have a shirt from GAP that's a US2. I'm not boasting! Just highlighting the discrepancies in sizing. Obviously in the UK, we like to make people feel bad about themselves.

When I was pregnant, I bought all my maternity clothes from ASOS. They have really cute stuff. They do run a little big though. I would go a size down from what you think you need. I was swimming in some pants and dresses and had to return them.
