Dear TPF-ers

I am struggling between choosing a picotin 18 or 22 for my build. I know 18 is more popular than 22 but am not sure which one suit my build / size overall. Hence I would like to have your votes and opinions which one look better on me. Also , the pros n cons for 18 vs 22, especially after it become slouchy?

Will it look bigger / longer or shorter / smaller?

Thanks TPF-ers!

I hate the color etoupe, so I think it may be swaying my answer a lot but I think the 22 looks amazing on you. I'm normally the type that gravitates towards the smaller bag, but the proportions of the 22 just work better somehow. The 18 suits you as well though, so I don't think you'd go wrong with either.

I go back and forth too. Don’t worry about your height/frame and wear whatever you want. Both look great on you! 22 isn’t too big. It may slouch but you can get an insert or just wear it slouchy. I’d do 22 if you want to pack more or use it for work and 18 would be mostly just dinners or shopping for me.
 
I vote 18. It suprisingly fits quite a lot. I got an insert from maitai and not only does it bring structure but also has some pockets which are also useful for phone etc.
