È troppo grande.

It is too big.

Say this in the fitting room when the item does not fit and you need a smaller size. Follow immediately with 'avete una taglia più piccola?' to continue the process smoothly.

Qué significa

'Troppo' means too (as in too much/big/small). 'Grande' means big or large. The phrase is complete as is — no subject needed in Italian. For specific fit issues: 'è troppo largo' (too wide), 'è troppo lungo' (too long), 'è troppo stretto' (too tight).

Mini diálogo

Cliente: È troppo grande — mi cade dalle spalle. Commessa: Provo con una taglia più piccola? Cliente: Sì, per favore — la quaranta. Commessa: Un momento.

Customer: It is too big — it falls off my shoulders. Assistant: Shall I try a smaller size? Customer: Yes, please — a forty. Assistant: One moment.

Nota cultural

Italians use the verb 'cadere' (to fall) to describe clothes that are too big: 'mi cade' (it falls on me). This vivid language is part of everyday Italian fashion vocabulary even in casual conversation.
