Sizes & Fitting


Let us help you find what you're looking for with the help of this fitting guide! We know that shopping online can be tricky sometimes without the help of a salesperson around to help you out.  This is why we've gathered tips and tricks from some of our own staff members to compile a fitting guide that will make shopping online easier.  You may want to grab a soft measuring tape, and a few items you know fit you well.  We'll use these as guides and get their measurements.  With these you'll have a better idea of what to look for when you're shopping with us.  If you're still unsure we invite you to contact us and we will help you out however we can, even if it means modelling the merchandise for you and sending you the pictures!

 

Dresses, Tops & Skirts

The measurements found on our site for dresses, tops & skirts are taken flat across the garment.  On each item you will find the sizes for a medium size.

A) Bust/Chest:
Measure across the garment from one side to the other just below the armpit. 

B) Waist
Measure at the natrual waist, normally the narrowest part of the garment.  On a dress, this measure would usually be at the elastic band, on a top measure halfway between the bust and the hip and on a skirt measure the waistline.

C) Hip
Usually found at the widest part of the garment or where the natrual hips fall.  Measure across from one side to the other.

D) Length
Measure from the top of the shoulder to the lowest part of the garment whether it is a dress, top or skirt.

E) Sleeve
Measure from inside the armpit to the end of the sleeve (hem).

 

Denim


The measurements for denim are taken around the area so the numbers represent circumerence except for the inseam and rise

 
   

Rise (Front)
This measurement is taken from between the legs to the top of the front (where the button normally is). 

 

Back Rise
Measured from the seam between the legs up to the top of the buttocks.


 

Knee
The knee measurement is, you guessed it, the circumference of the knee!

 

Bottom (hem)
The bottom measure is the circumference of the hem at the bottom of the leg.

 

Inseam
The inseam is measured from the crotch to the hem at the bottom of the leg.  If you are wearing with heels you may want to order a longer inseam.
