How Our Size Differs

Our size is completely different from standard retailers as occasion wear dresses tend to be more structured and less stretchy than regular clothing. We cannot determine your size by your shirt or pant size, so you must measure yourself and compare your measurements to our size chart to find your best size.

You will still need to measure yourself if you’ve purchased an occasion dress from another formal wear company, as sizing can differ from company to company.

How To Measure

Measurement Guide For Dresses

With the help of a friend or family member, watch our measuring guide and then follow the instructions using a soft measuring tape (not a ruler or construction tape) to measure your:

A few additional notes to consider when measuring:

When using your measuring tape, you’ll want to ensure that you don’t pull it too tight around your body. Give yourself some wiggle room so that you have room to breathe.

Wear fitted clothing (like leggings and a tank top) when measuring and a supportive bra (whether you plan to wear a bra with the dress or not). If you have shapewear you plan to wear, wear this when measuring.

You do not need to be measured at a bridal store or by a seamstress. If you are, please ensure they read or watch our guidelines to measure you correctly, as different bridal stores and sewists will take measurements differently.

Find Your Dress Size

The best way to determine your size is to measure your bust, waist, and hips with a soft measuring tape (not a ruler or construction measuring tape) according to our guidelines and then compare those to the designated size chart for your item. Our main size charts can be found here.
