Size Guide

Bust

To determine a garment’s bust measurement, lay the piece flat and measure it “pit to pit” then double it. To measure your own bust, take a measuring tape and wrap it around the fullest part of your bust. Easy peezy!

WAIST

Your waist measurement will be taken by wrapping a measuring tape around the smallest part of your “natural” waist. On pants, shorts, and skirts, lay the garment flat and measure across and then double!

HIPS

To get an accurate hip measurement, you will measure the widest part of the garment below the waist. On your body, wrap the measuring tape around the widest part of your hips and booty.

RISE

The front rise measurement is from the waist (or top) of the garment to the very bottom of the crotch. (Sorry, don’t love that word either!) This will tell you how high something will sit on your waist. An 11” or 12” rise is pretty high-waisted.

INSEAM

Simply measure the length from the crotch seam to the bottom hem of your pant leg. This measurement is your inseam. If you are a giraffe like me, you might have a 33” inseam.
