A NOTE ABOUT SIZING

All of our dresses are sized in US sizes according to the designer’s specifications. Every designer has different size charts, so sizing can vary with every dress. The size you normally wear may not be the size you would wear in a dress from our site. Most formal dresses run smaller, usually one size smaller than normal clothing. Before you choose your size, we recommend looking at the size chart for the dress you are interested in to make sure you are choosing the best size for your measurements.

How to take your measurements.

If possible, have someone measure you with a flexible measuring tape. Before you get started, wear something form-fitting to get the most accurate measurements. Also, don't pull the measuring tape too tight around your body. You'll want to give yourself some wiggle room. If you will be wearing special undergarments with your dress, measure over those.

A - Bust: Measure over the fullest part of the bust, usually above the nipple. Note: this is not your bra size!

B - Waist: Measure around the smallest part of your waist, about 1 to 2 inches above your belly button.

C - Hips: Measure the fullest part of your hips.

If you are between sizes, we suggest that you choose the larger size and have the dress tailored. For example: if your bust is a Medium and your waist is a Large, please select the Large and get the bust altered.

Please keep in mind that the dress may not be an exact fit. Very seldom it is. Therefore, alterations may be necessary and may be easily done by a local tailor. A general rule of thumb is that a dress can be tailored 2 sizes down if necessary.
