Size guide
Sweater No. 11 light has an oversized fit. The smaller sizes have a larger positive ease than the larger, to compliment each body in the best possible way. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 35-40 cm [13.75-15.75 inches] in sizes XS-XL and 30-35 cm [11.75-13.75 inches] in sizes 2XL-4XL.
Sizes XS, (S, M, L, 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X) are equivalent to European standard sizes and suit a bust circumference of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) cm [31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.5 (37.5-39.5) 39.5-43.25 (43.25-47.25) 47.25-51.25 (51.25-55) inches].

For example: You measure 88 cm [34.75 inches] at your bust + 35-40 cm [13.75-15.75 inches]= 123-128 cm [48.5-50.5 inches]. Meaning you would choose a size S with a finished circumference of 126 cm [49.5 inches].

Model wears size M (black version).
Model wears size XS (light version).
