As opposed to wovens, knits allow more leeway with fit. It may be a new direction in sizing for her, which would be a welcome change.

      but what about the knits, shoulder and body length isnt it usually smaller? but then again, her stuff are usually loose fitted... : \
      Of course you have, because that's historically how she's sized them. I was referring to the knit tanks in the current women's Blanche collection, which are sized XS-L. I apologize for not clarifying that. Regarding a women's 36 being equivalent to a men's XXS–yes, it'd be the closest thing, since 36 is Ann's second-smallest female size (smallest is a 34, though retailers as a rule don't order it).

      Obviously not everything will so easily convert from women's to fit the male body, as shoulder width remains the biggest hurdle. Luckily, Ann's overall women's silhouette has always privileged a louche ease over precision fit, so depending on your build, there's often plenty of good stuff from each season that will cross-convert.

              As I recall, the instructions on the inane questions thread suggest you call the store. I believe in this case it is Sartorialoft.

                  I've been looking for a Margiela tape blazer for awhile, and spotted this one today



                  Only one size available, which is a size down for me. But I've heard this style runs really big. Hopefully that's true.....

                        i have a few of the alpaca knits in womens marked M. id be interested to compare sizes with the mens version, from what ive seen the womens seem to fit larger/looser. i already have a large tear in arm after only a few wears in one too, so be careful with yours, guys. and while were knit-picking its anthracite not charcoal, house of dis. ahah jk. a lot of ann's stuff is easily convertible, i think the womens pants often work best for leaner men as they're often made very large. be careful converting tanks sometimes the neckline is obviously for a women which you can typically see in the picture but still.

                            Yes, I find that the 36 pants fit me as well or better than the XXS or XS men's pants and fit me better than they fit a lot of my female friends.
