Our size table gives garment measurements, not body measurements. The difference is that a garment measurement is what the garment actually measures lying flat, and it is the only figure you can check against something you already own.
The fastest way to pick the right size is therefore not to measure your body. It is to measure a garment that fits the way you want it to fit.
Method one: measure the garment you already have
- Lay the garment flat on a table. Smooth it out without pulling.
- Chest width: measure straight across, one centimetre below the armhole, edge to edge.
- Total length: from the highest point of the shoulder straight down to the hem.
- Sleeve length: from the shoulder seam to the edge of the cuff.
- Compare the figures with our table and pick the row that comes closest.
A measurement two centimetres off ours is the same garment. One six centimetres off is a different size.
Method two: measure yourself
| Measurement | Where | How |
|---|---|---|
| Chest | The widest part of the ribcage | Tape level, breathe out normally |
| Waist | The narrowest part, above the navel | Do not hold your stomach in |
| Hip | The widest part over the seat | Feet together |
| Inseam | From the crotch to the floor | No shoes, back straight |
| Sleeve | From the edge of the shoulder bone to the wrist | Arm slightly bent |
Between two sizes
If you fall between two sizes, the garment decides which way to go. A blazer has to sit on the shoulder, so choose by shoulder width and let a tailor take in the waist. A shirt has to sit at the neck and across the chest, so choose the larger one if your shoulders are broad.
Our velvet blazer is cut straighter through the waist than a classic suit jacket. Between sizes, most people take the smaller one.
Scarf and slipper
The scarf comes in one size, 70 by 200 centimetres, and is made to be worn both as a scarf and over the shoulders. The slipper follows European shoe sizes and runs true. If your foot is wider than average, take one size up.
If it still turns out wrong
Fourteen days of withdrawal apply from the day you received the item, whatever the reason. We pay return shipping within Sweden, and the money is back on your card within five banking days of the return arriving.
Exchanging for another size is quicker than a return plus a new order. Email us before you send it and we will set the size aside.
