In my experience, clash flushes love perfectly when the latter is 2 sizes up.
I have both Love 15 and 16. I don’t like to pair my clash14 with love15 however when paired with love16, aesthetically pleasing. Even my cuff16 is of no match.

I quite get it when you described that the clash15 overlaps others, which I guess also includes your love16.

sizing is very personal so maybe if you have a chance, try the 15 again?

This is exactly how I feel with the clash 14… it is more aesthetically pleasing together. The 15 just looks big.

I dug up pictures I took during a previous visit where I also felt the 15 looked a bit big.

Still confused after two visits and becoming more honestly lol. Too much overthinking I guess.

The main pluses I see for getting the bigger size 1) if I gain weight, which I am hoping doesn’t happen and most likely not because I am at my heaviest now 2) more gold (although aesthetics seems to be a bigger draw to me) and 3) a 15 will most likely fit better for whoever gets it down the line when I go… one of my 6 nieces, etc. I am just more petite boned than then most of my family and friends.

May I ask how low your clash sits when your hand is down does it sit on your palm a bit? If you don’t mind sharing a picture😊. My love cuff doesn’t fit as loss as yours so I think might have to go one size down instead of two like yours, so cuff 17 and clash 16? I have scheduled an appointment with my SA tomorrow a day right before the increase 😆
I have to say I pretty much always choose snug fit than loose fit so that affects my decision.

My clash doesn’t at all sit on my palm. It rests on my wrist bone when my arm is down.

Not the best taken since it’s a weird angle and it’s night time now.

You can see that the clash spikes still rest on the cuff in this sizing

With love16, voila, there’s zero overlap. Each minding their own business.

Sorry am lazy to pair with love15 because of the screwing lol.

I have not tried one size difference for cuff and clash but I have a feeling the cuff may overlap the clash (since cuff to me is a in between size of full love).

I wear size 16 Love (medium-loose fit), 15 JUC and 14 Clash. I previously had a 15 clash, but I agree that the 14 clash pairs better with a 16 love. However, I had room to go down to the 14 clash comfortably because my 16 love is a bit of a loose fit. I hope that helps.

Thank you so much for all the photos. Love all of your bracelets they look beautiful on you either stand along or stacked, especially toe clash. I am so looking forward to trying out. haha totally understand what you meant by too lazy putting on the Love that’s why I went for cuff. 😁.

Thanks for all the pictures!! I’m with you in preferring the bracelets to not be too loose. I feel when it is more snug the bracelets don’t bang into each other as much. Your bracelets look perfect!

Thanks for the clarification. Next time I’ll ask to try on the size 14. I also have Love size 16 and JUC size 15 and Ecrou 15 (which fits snug)…everytime my SA insists that Clash needs to be 15 and it feels too big. Next time I can try size 14 and hope for the best!

Yes, I think it is a good idea to at least try the 14. Good luck!

Thank you! This REALLY helped. I am more convinced I made the right decision to get the clash 14 instead of the 15.

Thanks for your responses and also sharing your pics. Decision made. I am keeping the clash 14.

Need your options here please! Finally picked up my clash tried on both 15 and 16 like the fit of 16 but the look of 15. Came home with 16, 16 is a bit bigger than 16 JUC but 15 sits/looks perfect when stacking with 16 JUC. I have a small 15 JUC but it’s snug fit and when I went to FL a couple months ago the temperature was only in 80’s and my wrist swelled my small JUC 15 could barely passed my wrist bone. I put on some weight after I bought it. Now my dilemma is if I keep 16 I am sure I can wear it when I get older when my skin gets loose if you know what I mean I am planning for the future me and older me 😂 but will be at loose fit for now. If I exchange it to 15 it will look much nicer when stacking but might have the same issues as my 15 small JUC now which I am even thinking of either get it resized or they called reproduction which I have to pay 30% of the current selling price or get a reg JUC in size 16. Which one should I go. Pics with 16 only last one with 15. Please help!!

There’s a big difference with 2 sizes. I wished if there was 15 1/2.

Yeah… I had the same problem (along with a few others). I ended up with the 15, since I want to wear it NOW, at the moment. I feel good NOW with the 15. If it gets too small later on, I will worry about it later. I don’t want to worry about the hypothetical, plan for a heavier or older me, or worry whether my nieces who end up getting it fits it; just my two cents.

Yes the clash size jump is pretty significant. In perfect world, yeah if it has half size.

I don’t think I will plan for future sizing. That’s why I bought all my jewelry based on current fit. Who knows what tomorrow may bring *cliche.
Moreover I feel clash looks best being not too loose. It’s a very feminine design (that’s how I look at it); and being just so slightly clingy makes it look very pretty on the wrist.

Don't overthink it my dear! Get what you are comfortable NOW. The size 15 looks better IMHO. You wouldn't want it too loose that it'll go to an angle & it'll be uncomfortable. This is size 15 Clash sm with my juc 16 n love 17. Hope this helps.

if the 15 doesn’t hang up on your wrist with movement, or if you don’t have a prominent wrist bone like I do, I’d choose the smaller size. I had to return my first choice of the smaller size for the reasons I just stated and am much happier with being comfortable with the larger, even though I liked the look of the smaller size better. Get what fits you best now and enjoy.
