Clothing Size Guide For Women

AVARAISTA STYLE GUIDE

Since Avara carries styles from many different brands, including our own, please note that the measurements listed in the boutique size chart are meant as a guideline for fit. Styles from different designers can vary from one style to another, so read the product description for additional tips.

Our advice: IF IN DOUBT, SIZE UP! Boutique sizing tends to run smaller than national retailers and department stores.

HOW WE MEASURE:
We measure on a flat surface from seam to seam.

TOPS

Bust: We measure the bust of each blouse, T-shirt, pullover, sweater or dress over the chest of the garment from the underarm seam to underarm seam and double the number.

Length: We measure the length of each blouse, T-shirt, pullover, sweater or dress from the shoulder seam of the garment to the bottom of the top/dress.

BOTTOMS

Waist: We measure the waistband of all jeans, shorts, skirts, leggings, and joggers from each side and then double.

Length: We measure the length of all jeans, shorts, skirts, leggings, and joggers from top to bottom of the garment.

Inseam: We measure the inseam of all jeans, shorts, and joggers from the inner crotch seam to bottom of the hem.

FINDING YOUR PERFECT FIT:

To assure the best possible fit, look at the “Size Info” and “Model Info” under our “Descriptions” tab before purchasing, as this will be a good indicator of exact measurements and how the garments are fitting others. Sizing varies by brand and while some offer XS and XL, others do not. Stretch of the product varies by material, so review the “Details” under “Description” for a better idea.

To measure your bust, take a measuring tape and measure over the largest part of your bust and this should give you the size that will work best for you.

Please keep in mind with sweaters, oversized tops, etc. the products with an oversized fit- they will show larger busts. To find how the piece will fit you we recommend finding a similar piece in your closet to measure and compare fit.

To measure length, take a measuring tape and start it at the top of the shoulder seam and find the length measurement in the description. Wherever the length ends is where the top/dress will fit you.
