Choosing your dress size
- Bodycon, corset, satin and faux leather dresses have little or no stretch. If you are between sizes, choose the larger one.
- Wrap, smocked and knitted dresses are more forgiving. Choose your usual size.
- If your bust and hip fall in different sizes, choose by the part of the dress that is most fitted (for example the bust for a corset bodice, the hip for a pencil dress).
- Maxi dresses fall differently depending on your height. If you are petite, wear them with a heel or have the hem taken up.
How to measure
- Bust – around the fullest part, keeping the tape level across your back.
- Waist – around the narrowest part, usually just above the belly button.
- Hip – around the fullest part of your hips and bottom.
