How to choose your size
Start with your measurements
Compare your bust, waist, and hip measurements with the chart. For denim, focus on waist and hips.
Check the product fit
Some styles are designed to fit oversized, relaxed, fitted, or structured. Always review the individual product description before choosing.
Consider the fabric
Woven fabrics, tailored pieces, denim, and structured jackets may feel less flexible than knitwear or relaxed silhouettes.
Think about styling
If you plan to layer under coats, jackets, shirts, or knitwear, you may prefer the larger size for comfort.
Measuring tips
- Bust: Measure under your arms around the fullest part of your chest.
- Waist: Measure around your natural waistline above the hip bones without pulling the tape too tight.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks.
- Belt: Measure from the buckle prong or closure point to the middle hole of a belt that fits you well.
- Keep the measuring tape level and close to the body, but not tight.
- For the most accurate result, measure over lightweight clothing or undergarments.
Fit notes and between-sizes advice
Fits may vary by style and personal preference. If you are between two sizes, choose based on the fit you prefer and the garment type.
- Choose the smaller size for a closer fit when the style is relaxed or oversized.
- Choose the larger size for a looser fit, layering comfort, or structured pieces.
- For denim, compare both waist and hip measurements before selecting a size.
- For shoes, consider whether you usually wear socks and whether your foot is between sizes.
Product-detail reminder
Size charts are general guides. Always check the individual product page for fit notes, fabric details, silhouette, length, and styling information before placing your order.
