On the web listing for each of our garments, there is a size guide that has been created specifically for that item. We take great care ensuring that the charts are accurate - serving you as an essential tool in selecting the correct product.
Please note: measurements provided are of the product when laid flat, not body measurement.
Note - there may be a +/- 2cm tolerance.
Some customers find it helpful to compare our garment measurements to similar garments they already own that fits really well.
HOW TO MEASURE A GARMENT
All of our garments are measured in centimetres and on the flat. For example, the chest is measured under the armhole, side seam to side seam - that is the front flat, garment measurement.
To determine if a size will fit your body, you’ll need to double the flat measurements to get the full circumference (eg. Bust or hip circumference)
See examples below of how to measure the garment:

The size guide provided general sizing information and should be used as a guide only. Be sure to check each description closely, as selecting an oversized, relaxed, or boxy garment may result in a looser fit.
HOW TO MEASURE YOURSELF
1 - CHEST
Measure around your chest, the tape measure should be snug, not so tight that it constricts breathing, but not so loose that it can slide down. Make sure to keep the tape measure level so that’s it’s straight.
2 - WAIST
Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waistline.
3 - HIPS
Position the tape measure around the widest part of your hips, make sure to keep the tape measure level
4 - THIGH
Wrap the tape measure around the top of your thigh, at the widest point, this may be a few centimetres below your crotch
5 - INLEG
Measure from the top of your inner leg to your ankle. Make sure you are standing straight while you do this
Measuring your chest, waist, hip and thigh will give you your body circumference, so you must divide by 2 to get your half body measurement.
Be sure to consider the garment fit when relating your body measurement back to the garment measurement. Often you need to add some room for movement depending on the type of garment
