Size chart


Our size chart reflects the dimensions of the garment, not those of the customer. Please note that these dimensions represent the maximum size of the garment and may vary slightly due to the handmade nature of our clothing and differences in the measuring process. It's crucial to measure yourself before ordering and compare your measurements to our size chart, as our garments do not stretch.
Recommendations for utilizing the size chart
- For closed-back dresses (such as sleeved dresses or those with zipper or button closure), choose a size based on your largest measurement. For instance, if your bust measures 39 inches (99cm) and your waist measures 28 inches (71cm), opt for a size M. If your bust measures 43 inches (109cm) and your waist measures 34 inches (86cm), select a size XL.
- Your hip measurement becomes crucial for garments fitted from the waist downwards, like pants, shorts, jumpsuits, and snug skirts, where your hip measurement should be the determining factor.
Our garments are crafted from 100% African print cotton fabric, known for its non-stretch quality.
Feel free to chat with us or send an email if you need assistance determining your correct size.
