Size guide

Every chart on this page lists the measurements of the garment itself, in inches and centimeters. Find your piece by name below.

How to measure

The surest way to choose a size is to measure a piece you already own that fits the way you like. Lay it flat, measure it as described here, and compare the numbers with our chart.

• Bust: measure straight across from armpit to armpit, then double it. On your body, measure around the fullest part of your bust.
• Waist: measure straight across the waist, then double it. On your body, measure around your natural waist, the narrowest part of your torso.
• Hips: measure straight across the widest part, then double it. On your body, measure around the fullest part of your hips.
• Length: for tops, dresses and abayas, measure from the highest point of the shoulder, next to the collar, straight down to the hem. Center front length runs from the front neckline down to the hem. For skirts and pants, measure from the top of the waistband to the hem.
• Shoulder: measure across the back from one shoulder seam to the other.
• Sleeve: measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve.

Reading our charts

Our charts give garment measurements, not body measurements. Bust, waist and hip figures are the full measurement around the garment. Most pieces are measured by hand with the garment laid flat, so allow 2 to 3 cm (about 1 in) either way. A few charts label sizes differently from the size menu on the product page, and where that happens we show both.
