All initial samples are crafted on a professional dressmaker's body form in size medium, as seen in each product listing.

Once Karen is happy with the fit, the other sizes are graded up and down from this reference size.

Dress Form Size (Medium)

Bust: 34.6" (88cm) / Waist 27.9" (71cm) / Hips: 37" (94cm) 

Please measure at widest parts, for example: over the fullest / widest part of your bottom for your hip measurement.

Example Fit

If you are on the cusp of a size, say for example your hips measure 38" (96cm) which fall on the top end of the medium size, please choose the next size up, which would be size Large.

All swimwear is made 1-2 inches smaller than the body measurements so this would still fit but will be more comfortable. Swimwear fabric is very stretchy!  ♡

This also applies to leggings and anything made in Lycra that’s meant to be skin tight.

Cup sizes are approximate and depend on your preferred level of coverage, which is a personal choice.
