Measuring instructions:

To assure a proper fit, please follow the measuring instructions below.  Measure the fullest part of the bust, narrowest part of the waist, and fullest part of the hips.  Please e-mail with any questions on measuring!  Thank you!

Bodices lace closed and will fit a short range of sizes because there are a few inches of play in the measurements.  However, accurate measurements are essential for a proper look and fit.

To measure for a bodice, have a friend  use a flexible (fabric) tape measure.  Measure around the fullest part of the bust, and the narrowest part of the waist.  Do not base your size on your bra measurement...a 36 C bra is generally 39", and this can mean a size difference, etc.  Measure to be safe, we want you to be happy!

Bodice length and sleeve fullness/length are proportionate to the bust size.  If you are very petite or very tall, or have a unique body type, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your special order.

Skirts and chemises are one size fits most.
