    I'm looking at ordering some stuff from the New Look website. Can anyone shed some light on sizing? I have quite long arms and am worried the jackets won't fit

    don't then... You will end up having to send them all back. It is a mind field with long arms because then you might have to go up a size or two to get the length in the arms and then it is huge around the chest and waist.

    Go into a store and try on some jackets and see first if they fit your arm length. Absolutely nothing in Next - no matter what size fits my arms.

    I can't remember trying on anything in New Look - not sure if I have tried on one of their jackets.

    I usually go a size up in jackets no matter what (maybe my shoulders are broad?), but I tried on a few jackets in New Look recently and the arms were a good length. I'm 5'5 and I was trying on size 14 (normally wear a 12).

    That's womens wear - I don't know about mens wear, if that's what you're talking about.
