SIZE GUIDE

Select your size based on your chest circumference. For best fit, measure your bust at the fullest point and choose the size closest to your measurement. For example, if your bust measures 94 cm [37 in], choose size M, which has a finished chest circumference of 119 cm [46.75 in], allowing for 25 cm [9.75 in] ease. This pattern is designed to have approx. 25 cm [9.75 in] of positive ease in the smaller sizes and then gradually less positive ease in the larger sizes. If you're between sizes, we suggest sizing up.
