First weight loss goal - 40lbs... DONE! Second weight loss goal - 17lbs...
Not sure why they call it a US 2, but I know that their 2s are never equivalent to a 2 that you'll find in other stores. I have skirts a couple of skirts from there that are a size 4 and I am never bigger than a 0 in any other store (well sometimes french connection - some of their stuff is very small).
This exactly.
I was looking at some skinny/colored jeans in there last week and grabbed a 2 and they were soooooo small. I know I could not have even pulled them on even though I normally wear a 0 or 2. I didn't bother with them because I didn't want to take the time to try to figure out the correct size.

Bought a dress from them that never fit right. It was an 8 and it was HUGE on me. 8's are usually a little snug on me.
Also, some of their clothes look cheaper than Old Navy.
Hello ladies,
I am mostly a lurker here but just wanted to reply to this one: H&M is a swedish brand, and, as far as i've noticied the sizes are featured in european and uk sizeing.The european ones are 34,36,38...and the uk ones are 6,8,10... I've never seen us sizeing over here but maybe it's a feature available only for the us market.
Anyway, an us size 2 is a 6 in uk and a 34-36 in europe, more or less...on their site their is a size chart. Also, if this piece of info might help you, h&m is known over here (europe) for their bigger sizeing, as is gap.
Hope to have helped a bit!
Ditto to all of it! I'm usually a 2 or 4 in everything else pretty much everywhere, but the H&M stuff I have runs from 0-10 (or XS-L) in size. This includes dresses, tops, pants, etc, with little to no consistency among type of item (so I have dresses that are size 2 and dresses that are size 8).
The European sizing explanation would make sense if indeed the sizes were consistent, but they aren't.

Looks exactly like a size 10, a kid's size 10.

I wonder if you measured it's width if it would match a girl's size 10

Ha, probably pretty close. I picked up the 2 first- looked too small. Picked up the 4- couldn't tell a difference from the 2. This continued until I got to size 8- I could tell a *slight* difference in the size 8.
