How do I know my size?
The satisfaction and comfort of our customers is the most important thing for us. For this reason we have created this basic and easy guide so that you can check the sizes that we have available.
Important before starting to take measurements:
Place the garments on a flat surface such as a table, bed or piece of furniture; if the garment is not fully extended, the measurements taken may be incorrect.
Use cloth or plastic tape, such as tailor's or dressmaker's tape. Write down your measurements so you can remember them, thus avoiding the need to take measurements again.
However, if the information is not sufficiently useful, you can contact us via our email:

Sleeve Length
The most reliable way to measure sleeve length is to lay the garment flat and measure the entire length of the sleeve. The measurement to take is the distance between the seam where the sleeve meets the shoulder and the cuff.
Common mistake:
Do not lay the garment on a flat surface before taking measurements.
Shoulder width
The most reliable way to measure shoulder width is to lay the garment out on a flat surface and measure the distance across the shoulders as shown in the image.
Common mistake :
Take measurements when the garment is hanging rather than lying flat.
Take measurements when the garment is hanging rather than lying flat.
Do not spread the garment completely.
Chest width
The most reliable way to measure chest width is to lay the garment flat and take the measurements as shown in the image. Then multiply the measurement by two. This measurement should be taken between the seams on the sides of the garment.
Common mistake :
Take measurements when the garment is hanging rather than lying flat.
Do not spread the garment completely.
Waist measurement
The most reliable way to measure waist width is to lay the garment flat and take the measurements as shown in the image. The part that should be measured to ensure the most accurate measurement possible is generally one or two inches above the belly button. Then we multiply the measurement by two.
Common mistake:
Take measurements when the garment is hanging rather than lying flat.
Take the measurement without laying the garment flat.
Body length
The most reliable way to measure body length is to lay the garment flat and take the measurements as shown in the image. The measurement should be taken from the shoulder seam to the neck, passing through the waistline to the bottom of the garment.
Common mistake:
Take measurements when the garment is hanging rather than lying flat.
Take the measurement without fully extending the garment.
Hip width (long garments only)
The most reliable way to measure body length is to lay the garment out on a flat surface and measure the hip width as shown in the image.
Common mistake:
Taking the measurement of the width of the hips the garment is hanging instead of laying it flat.
Do not spread the garment completely.
