FAQ
Choosing the right size is crucial to ensure that your creation fits your body perfectly. Here are some simple steps to help you select the size that works best for you:
- Check Our Size Chart: Click here to access it. You will also find this chart on each product’s page. It indicates the measurements corresponding to each size, such as bust, waist, hips, arm circumference, thigh circumference, and shoulder width. It’s important to base your choice on your personal measurements.
- Take Your Measurements: Using a tape measure, measure yourself carefully (not too loose or tight). Note the circumference of your bust, waist, hips, etc. (see our dedicated page on “How to Take Your Measurements”) and compare these to the size chart to determine the size that most closely matches your measurements.
- Between Two Sizes? If your measurements fall between two sizes (for example, between Eur36 and Eur38), we recommend choosing the smaller size unless you prefer a looser fit. Depending on your body type, you may need to make adjustments between different sizes.
- Consider the Fit and Style: Some styles may be more fitted or looser. If you’re unsure, check the details of each product to see whether it’s designed to be fitted, straight, or loose. You’ll find finished measurements for each size to help you visualize and make an informed decision.
If you’re still unsure or new to choosing sizes, feel free to contact us. We’re happy to assist you in making the best choice for you
