Size guide

Find your fit

Every number on this page is your body, not the garment. Pick whichever way of finding your size suits you — they all lead to the same chart.

01 — The chart

Size and measurements

These are body measurements, and they're the same across everything we make. Garment length varies by style, so you'll find it on each product page.

Body measurements

Hip
8 in (20 cm) down from your waist, around the fullest part.

Fit questions

I'm between two sizes

Size to the largest of your three measurements. If your bust falls in one size and your waist in another, go with the bust for tiered, A-line and flared styles, and with the waist for anything belted or fitted through the middle.

How long is the dress?

Length changes with every style, so we list it on the product page rather than here. Look under Size & Fit on any product for its shoulder-to-hem measurement.

Does organic cotton shrink after washing?

Our fabric is pre-shrunk before cutting, so you should see very little movement. Wash cold and dry in the shade and the fit will hold.

My bust and waist are two sizes apart

This is common and it isn't a problem with our silhouettes. Choose the larger size, and for anything you want closer through the waist, our co-ord sets and top-and-bottom styles are sized separately so you can mix.

How tall is the model and what is she wearing?

Model height and the size she is wearing are listed on every product page, just below the size selector.

What if the size I ordered doesn't fit?

02 — No measuring tape

No measuring tape? No problem

Two questions and a preference. It takes about ten seconds and gets most women to the right size.

Height and weight give a good starting point, not a guarantee — two women of the same build can sit a size apart. If you can measure, the chart above will always be more accurate.

03 — Compare to a brand you know

What size do you usually wear?

Tell us a brand you already shop and the size you take there, and we'll point you to the closest match in ours.

Sizing varies between brands and between styles within a brand, so treat this as a starting point rather than a rule.
