Does Monki’s sizing come up small?
Monki offers sizes XXS-XXL (EUR 32–52) and they follow standard European sizes.
Generally, the brand is pretty true to size. A few pieces run big, so you might want to size down.
Their styles come in a variety of fits: oversized, regular, and tight.
Before checking the sizes, read the product descriptions to learn the type of fit. In Monki terms, tight-fitting styles sit close to the body, and oversized items were designed to look baggy.
As always, we recommend trying items on if possible. This is the best way to get a sense of how a brand’s pieces will fit you going forward.
Monki vs H&M
According to some online reviewers, Monki is pretty true to size compared to its sister brand H&M.
However it’s important to consider your height when shopping at Monki, as some of the brand’s dresses may run a little on the short side if you’re tall.

Do Monki’s coats run big or small?
Coats are the perfect layering pieces, but if you’re planning on wearing chunky jumpers underneath, you’ll need to make sure the fit is right.
Many of Monki’s coats are oversized, so they have a lot of room for a knit underneath. You can also opt for a size down if you want something more tight-fitting.
Monki has a wide array of styles. From cosy wool blends to sleek trench coats, you’ll 100% find a coat that fits your aesthetic.
What size do Monki models wear?
Monki has models of different body types and shapes. So it’s safe to assume that they wear clothes that are true to their size.
The brand ensures that they don’t perpetuate unrealistic body ideals. Monki has even partnered with the Body Dysmorphic Disorder Foundation for a campaign to raise awareness around body dysmorphic disorder (BDD).
Unfortunately they don’t specify which sizes their models wear on each item.
