HOW TO FIND YOUR PERFECT FIT.
STEP 1: TAKE YOUR MEASUREMENTS.
You'll need a flexible measuring tape. Stand straight and breathe normally.
BUST: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
WAIST: Measure around your natural waistline (the narrowest part of your torso, usually about 2-3 cm above your belly button).
HIPS: Measure around the fullest part of your hips, approximately 20 cm below your waistline.
HEIGHT: Measure from the top of your head to the floor without shoes.
STEP 2: FIND YOUR SIZE
Use your measurements to find your size in our chart below:
GENERAL SIZE GUIDE (Body Measurements)
Check the table below for a GENERAL guide. Each dress has specific measurements on its product page.
IMPORTANT: These are body measurements, NOT garment measurements.
Always check the specific dress measurements on the product page, as fit varies by style.
STEP 3: UNDERSTAND THE FIT
FIT DESCRIPTIONS EXPLAINED:
TRUE TO SIZE Order your usual size. The dress will fit as expected with comfortable wearing ease.
RUNS SMALL This style fits smaller than our standard sizing. Consider sizing up.
RUNS LARGE This style fits larger than our standard sizing. Consider sizing down.
STRETCH FACTOR:
- No Stretch: Structured fabrics like satin. Size according to exact measurements.
- Slight Stretch: 5-10% give. Comfortable but not clingy.
- Moderate Stretch: 10-20% give. Hugs curves while allowing movement.
- High Stretch: 20%+ give. Very form-fitting, accommodates size range.
BETWEEN SIZES?
If your measurements fall between two sizes:
For Structured/No-Stretch Dresses:
- Size up if between sizes
- Better to have slight room than too tight
For Stretchy Dresses:
- Go with your usual size
- Stretch fabrics are more forgiving
For Bust-Heavy Figures:
- Size for your bust, consider alterations at waist if needed
- Look for "moderate to high stretch" dresses
For Hip-Heavy Figures:
- Size for your hips
- A-line and fit-and-flare styles are most flattering
DRESS LENGTH GUIDE
Check the table below for the Approximate length reference (will vary by height):
Note: These are approximate. Check individual product measurements and consider your height.
STYLING TIPS BY BODY TYPE
PETITE (Under 163 cm)
- Look for dresses with vertical details
- Avoid overwhelming prints or volume
- Midi lengths may hit at ankle
- Consider hemming services for maxi styles
TALL (Over 175 cm)
- Mini and above-knee styles work beautifully
- Maxi dresses will hit at ideal length
- Look for dresses with longer torso measurements
- Midi styles may be shorter on you
CURVY
- Look for "moderate to high stretch" fabrics
- A-line and wrap styles are universally flattering
- Size for your largest measurement
- Empire waists and defined waists are your friends
ATHLETIC/STRAIGHT
- Bodycon and fitted styles create curves
- Peplum styles add hip dimension
- Belted waists create definition
- Ruching and gathering add shape
