How the house measures
General sizing for the collection, in inches. Where a piece carries its own chart, the chart on that product page governs.
Garments are measured by hand and may vary slightly.
Two kinds of measurement. Women's charts are taken on the body — find the row your own measurements fall into. Men's and children's charts are taken on the finished garment — compare them against a piece you already own and wear well.
Where a standard size does not sit right, a piece can be made to your measurements.
