Do you size up when a garment is all cotton??  Or does it depend on the garment?

I size down regardless of the fabric.  I think her tops are way huge.

Re: Sizing Question

@toria

you really need to read the specs carefully.  I look for chest size, armhole, back, sweep, waist, hips, length.  I compare them to the specs on equivalent pieces I own.  The rayon span has more give, so can be a closer chest number.  I bought the new cotton slub with dotted Swiss on the back and it fit fine in my usual small.  A274087

Depends on the garment.  Generally (but there have been exceptions) I find her all cotton or cotton/modal blend fabrics run smaller than her rayon spans.  I shy away from ordering them because my usual size med. is too small and a large is too big.  They just aren't for me.  Or the sleeve area is small but the rest of it fits fine, so it doesn't work.

I agree with Pearley in my more limited experience. I'm a size 10 and I find the slub cotton fits me perfectly while many of the rayon spans have been on the generous side. One exception is a cotton cashmere sweater I ordered that was the largest medium I've received in her line.A261080 LOGO by Lori Goldstein Cotton Cashmere Sweater with Printed Hem. Another cotton cashmere I received was way smaller-both mediums.

 

I don't mind so much though, sometimes I want fitted, other days I want to dress more flowy. The only real sizing issues I've had is with her outerwear, it ran HUGE, even the kimono  cardi would have fit better in a small for me but I kept the medium, it wasn't a deal breaker. I think how things fit depends of course on your individual body type, height, etc. where you may carry weight.

 

Tallking with the the long time Logo ladies has saved me many returns, they're an awesome bunch of ladies. I've tried matching up the measurements as recommended with good results. (Just started doing that recently)
