Well I am 5ft 2½ and my inside leg is 28 inches. I am short in the body and longer in the leg. I suppose they'd have a job to suit all shapes and sizes but I wish they'd sort the lengths out a bit better. The medium jeans I have bought need three inches off them. But the medium jeans style trousers only needed an inch turned under. |

M & S do do a fitting service but I don't find their bras comfortable (I am a 38F). |

Years ago (many of them) I did a brief stint working for a factory that made the clothes for M&S. Often beig bored in stock control I would go and work on the lines. Collating at the beginning or or finish checking at the end. |

Shirley - best place to go for bras and bra fitting is Bravissimo - they are first class - I'm very particular about bras - 32JJ - and Bravissimo stock many brands in that size - I always buy Fantasie - they are £38, but worth it |

Ann that doesn´t surprise me. I doubt any of their clothes are still made in the UK. |

I get a lot of my clothes from Sainsburys or Tescos, Lidls or Aldis these days for convenience, it's easy to park and I just bring a bundle home, have a tryon session at my leisure and return unwanted item I rarely buy from M & S. |

I have just measured two pairs of M&S jeans, both new and unwashed. Both sale buys. The medium one, my normal size has 31" inside legs. The short pair (bought as an experiment very cheap) has 25" inside legs so a full 6 inches between them. Goodness knows what length the long ones are! I shall make the short ones into crops (they are plum coloured.). I am also wearing a pair of M&S jeans medium length about 2 years old and they are 28" and fit perfectly. all these were made in Bangladesh. |
