To get the right size when shopping online, measure carefully and correctly. It's best to take your measurements wearing a light t-shirt or undergarment, but not a bulky sweatshirt or coat. As you measure, make sure the tape stays level and is not wrapped too tight. We recommend using a cloth measuring tape, but you can also use a ruler and a piece of string if needed. Make sure to write down your measurements and update them every time you are looking for garments.
The perfect fit starts with getting proper body measurements. These measurement guidelines for women will help you determine what size to look for in coats, jackets, tops, and pants.
Sizing can vary between products. After following these steps, make sure you check the size guide for each individual product to ensure the best fit.
Measure around the chest at the fullest point of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
Measure around your natural waistline. This is typically located about an inch above the belly button and should be the narrowest part of your torso.
Standing with your feet together, measure around the fullest point of your seat. It can be helpful to do this in front of a mirror so you can make sure the tape is level across your backside.

Start with a collared shirt that fits you well. Lay the fully buttoned collar flat. Measure with tape inside of collar going around to the far end of opposite buttonhole until the tape overlaps.
Measure around the fullest part of your chest, just under your arms and across your shoulder blades, holding the tape firm and parallel to the floor.
With your arm relaxed at your side and slightly bent, start at the center back of your neck and run the tape over the shoulder and down the outside of your arm, ending at the wrist. Sleeve length is always in whole numbers, so round up if necessary.
Measure around your natural waistline. For belts, it varies where your pants fall. To ensure a perfect fit, order 2" larger than your normal pant waist size (e.g., if you wear a size 34 pant, order a size 36 belt). If between sizes, order the next size up.
The idea is try to measure your head exactly where your hat will be worn. Most hats are typically worn 1⁄8" above the top of your ear.
