Every piece in the collection is cut to the measurements below, the same chart shown in the size guide on each product page. Where a style runs differently, the product page says so.

How to measure
- Bust: around the fullest part of the chest, just under the arms, tape level.
- Waist: around the narrowest part of the torso, just above the navel.
- Hip: around the fullest part of the hips, feet together.
- Height: barefoot, back against a wall, from the crown of the head to the floor.
Choosing between two sizes
- Take the larger size when your measurements fall between two rows.
- For dresses and tops, the bust measurement decides; for skirts and trousers, the hip does.
- In stretch fabrics take your usual size. In non stretch woven pieces, particularly corseted styles, consider sizing up.
- Garment measurements, where given, are listed on the product page in both centimeters and inches.
