I'm surprised. Was looking to spend quite a bit of dollarydoos on a new trench coat. I had specific design details that I wanted (not all trench coats are the same) and I saw one (online) that I'm assuming was last season's stock (all sold out). By chance I went into the store and asked. They had one left and it was 4 sizes bigger (I was looking for oversized) and I wasn't sure it would work, but the lovely store person made it work! I'm so chuffed. (It was also missing a small bit, but not bothered.) From looking at spending 4-something (it was also originally priced in that range) to less than 70.
In fact, I love it so much I'm sitting in it typing. Haha.
I've bought bigger sizes before thinking I could get the oversized thing to work, but I don't think it works with all pieces of clothing.
