We understand that all bodies are shaped differently and that sizing may differ from brand to brand making it sometimes difficult to determine what size you may be when ordering online. For this reason we provide detailed measurements in each style listing in the critical fit areas: bust, waist, hip, and length. The most accurate way to determine your size by style is to refer to the measurements listed for each size and then compare them to your own measurements or to something you own and wear comfortably. We have provided a general size chart for our brand below, but keep in mind it is always best to look by style at the fit notes and measurements as there may be some variance. For measurements listed in our size chart, please refer to your actual measurements, not the size you may purchase in another brand.
PANT SIZING TIPS:
For a more structured pant you generally want 1" to 1.5"of ease through your pant in the waistband and hips depending on your preferred fit. For example, if your natural waist measures 28", you would want to order a pant that measures around 29"-29.5" in the waistband. With less ease the pant will have a more countoured fit, with more, a more relaxed fit. We recommend about 1" and comparing measurements to your favorite pant to be sure.
For our Everyday Trouser styles with elastic through the waist, there is more flexibility in the fit, so ordering closer to your actual measurement is recommended.
HOW TO MEASURE:
Waist: Measure loosely around the natural waistline just above the naval.
Hips: Measure loosely around the fullest part of your hips with feet together.
Bust: Measure loosely around the fullest part of your bust.
GARMENT COMPARISON:
Lay your own garments flat and measure across the in the areas noted in our styles.
For pants measure across the waistband and hips at 12" below the top of the pant.
