Size & Fit Guide

Choose the fit path with clarity.

These are body measurements, not garment measurements. Compare your measurements with the standard chart before choosing a size.

How to measure

Bust

Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level and close to the body without pulling tight.

Natural waist

Measure the narrowest part of your waist, usually above the belly button and below the ribs.

Hips

Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips.

Hollow to floor

Measure from the hollow between your collarbones straight down to the floor. Note your planned heel height separately.
