Size guide
Designer and vintage sizing wanders. Flat measurements are the only reliable guide — here is how to read them.
How to get it right first time
Measure flat
Lay a garment you already love flat. Measure across the chest, waist and hip, then double each number.
Compare, do not convert
Ignore the label size and compare your numbers to the measurements listed on the piece.
Ask if unsure
Send a message with your measurements and I will tell you honestly whether it will work.
General size chart
Measurements are in inches, taken flat across the garment and doubled.
| Size | US | Bust | Waist | Hip |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 0–2 | 32–33 | 24–25 | 34–35 |
| S | 4–6 | 34–35 | 26–27 | 36–37 |
| M | 8–10 | 36–37 | 28–29 | 38–39 |
| L | 12–14 | 38–40 | 30–32 | 40–42 |
| XL | 16–18 | 41–43 | 33–35 | 43–45 |
A guide only. Designer and vintage sizing varies widely, so always check the flat measurements on the product page.
Jeans by waist
Denim is listed by its waist number. Stretch styles usually give about an inch.
| Waist | US size | Waist (in) | Hip (in) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24 | 00 | 24 | 33 |
| 25 | 0 | 25 | 34 |
| 26 | 2 | 26 | 35 |
| 27 | 4 | 27 | 36 |
| 28 | 6 | 28 | 37 |
| 29 | 8 | 29 | 38 |
| 30 | 10 | 30 | 39 |
Sizing questions
For structured pieces, size up. For knitwear and anything with stretch, take the smaller size.
Always. If a piece runs off its label, it says so in the description.
Send your measurements and I will check the piece against them.
