Specific Item Measurements
If you have a great-fitting shirt or dress in your closet, comparing that to our measurements below might help narrow down a size.
Because our clothing is cut and sewn by humans, deviations from the measurements below can vary by 1/8"-1/4". This is industry standard. Please contact us if you receive an item that you feel is on the smaller or larger side of this deviation and we will happily send you another one to try!
REVERSIBLE FLUTTER SLEEVE
If you plan to wear the flutter on the v-neck side and have a larger bust, we recommend sizing up.
Bust (1/2) | Bottom (1/2) | Length | |
XS | 18" | 18.375" | 20.25" |
S | 19" | 19.625" | 21" |
M | 20" | 20.5" | 21.375" |
L | 21.5" | 22" | 21.875" |
XL | 23" | 23.75" | 22.75" |
* Measurements are taken with the garment lying flat.
HALF SLEEVE
The half sleeve will be more fitted in the shoulders, arms, and hips. If you are on the cusp for the hip measurements, you may consider going up a size—we have a few customers who wear a small in the flutter and balloon sleeve, but wear a medium in the half sleeve because of their hips. We also recommend sizing up if you like a looser, more casual fit.
Bust (1/2) |
Bottom (1/2) |
Length (front/back) | |
XS | 18.625" | 20" | 20.5"/27" |
S | 19.5" | 20.75" | 20.5"/27" |
M | 20.625" | 22" | 21"/27.625" |
L | 22" | 23.25" | 21.5"/28" |
XL | 23.875" | 25" | 22"/28.25" |
BALLOON SLEEVE
The balloon sleeve has a slightly larger bust circumference. Although its bottom opening is smaller than the half sleeve, it has more room in the hips due to its two 4" hip vents.
Bust (1/2) | Bottom (1/2) | Length (front/back) | |
XS | 18.75" | 19.5" | 21.125"/23.5" |
S | 19.625" | 20.25" | 21.125"/23.5" |
M | 20.75" | 21.5" | 21.875"/24" |
L | 22" | 22.875" | 22.25"/24.5" |
XL | 24" | 24.75" | 22.875"/25.125" |
* Measurements are taken with the garment lying flat.
