Size Guide

We want our customers to feel good and look great in their clothes. Simply follow these key tips to make sure that you get the perfect fit every time.

As a general rule, keep the tape measure firm but not tight around the point that you are measuring. If you are measuring yourself, we recommend taking a couple of measurements from each area in order to average out the changes in your posture whilst you are measuring.

MEASURING YOUR CHEST

Always measure around the fullest part of your chest, ensuring that you keep the tape measure as level as possible around your back and under your arms.

MEASURING YOUR WAIST

Measure around the narrowest part of your body, which is above your belly button but below your rib cage.

MEASURING YOUR HIPS

Measure around the fullest part of your hips, this is usually approximately 9” below your waist.

Once you have taken these measurements, check them against our sizing chart below
