Our products come from different suppliers, so sizing can vary between styles. Always check the size and measurement details on the product page, and ask us if you are unsure.
Finding the right fit
Treat a size label as a guide. The measurements on a product page are more reliable than a general age or size label.

How to measure a garment
- Choose a similar garment that fits well.
- Lay it flat without stretching it.
- Use a flexible measuring tape.
- Compare it with the measurements on the product page.
- Check whether the listing uses inches or centimetres (1 inch = 2.54 cm).
Kids’ tops, sweaters and dresses
- Chest: straight across from one underarm to the other.
- Length: from the highest point of the shoulder to the bottom hem.
- Sleeve: from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
- Shoulder: between the two shoulder seams.
Age labels are approximate because children of the same age can have different measurements.
Kids’ trousers
- Waist: straight across the waistband without stretching it.
- Outseam: from the top of the waistband to the bottom hem.
- Inseam: from the crotch seam to the bottom hem.
- Hip: across the widest part of the garment.
When a set lists a T-shirt length, that measurement is for the T-shirt, not the trousers.
Women’s underwear
Measure your body over light clothing:
- Waist: around your natural waist, without pulling the tape tight.
- Hip: around the fullest part of your hips and seat.
Compare these with the details for the specific product. Do not rely only on Small, Medium or Large, because supplier sizing can differ.
Bras and bralettes
- Underbust: around your ribcage, directly beneath the bust.
- Full bust: around the fullest part of the bust.
- Band and cup: use the product’s own size details where given.
If a product does not give enough information, contact us before ordering rather than guessing the size.
Between two sizes?
- Choose the larger size for growing room or a more relaxed fit.
- Stretch fabrics give a little more flexibility.
- Structured or non-stretch garments need more careful measuring.
