SIZE GUIDE
Select your size based on your chest circumference.
For the 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 36.5 in, choose size M, which has a finished chest circumference of 109 cm 43 in, allowing for 15 cm 6 in of ease. This pattern is designed to have approx. 15 cm 6 in of positive ease around the chest in the smaller sizes, and then gradually less positive ease in the larger sizes. If you’re between sizes, we suggest sizing up.
