These Labels Have Extended Their Sizing, but Do They Hit the Mark?

Wray

10 out of 10

Size Range: XXS to 6XL

Fit: Runs true to its size chart

Overall Experience: You really wouldn't know that this brand didn't always carry extended sizes. E-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g on the site is available up to 6XL. I noticed that each piece has its own size chart, so before buying, make sure to note where your measurements fall and don't assume fit based on other items. The trendy checkered lounge set I tried was incredibly soft, with fabric that made it feel worth the price. Both pieces fit perfectly oversized (the way they were intended).

Wray top and pants set, $189, wray.nyc. Arch mules, $160, archnyc.co. Telfar bag, $ 202, shop.telfar.net.

Lululemon

9 out of 10

Size Range: 0 to 20

Fit: Runs true to its size chart

Overall Experience: Guys....I finally get the obsession with Lululemon's buttery-soft activewear. And having it actually work on my body felt like gaining admission to a club I'd only witnessed from the outside. Not only were the leggings and joggers ridiculously comfy, but the tanks (with built-in bras!) actually held my D-cups in place while playing tennis too. All that's left is to expand to size 40 (and beyond, if we're talking total inclusivity) and for the physical stores to carry the full range as well.

Lululemon tank, $58, joggers, $118, lulu lemon.com. Nike sneakers, $65, nike.com.

Abercrombie

8 out of 10

Size Range: 000 to 24 and XXS to 3XL

One summer 2009 night, Julia's manager pulled her aside. A silver-haired gentleman's date was being kind of loud and messy-Julia should intervene, be extra nice to him. She got the okay to take the man up to the roof for a quiet smoke. This guy must be a big deal, she thought.
