Size Guide

Use this page as a general guide. Each product page shows its own sizes, and its own size chart where we have one for that style; those always come first. A product without a chart says so under its sizes.

Clothing: letter sizes and UK sizes

Size UK size
S 8 to 10
M 10 to 12
L 12 to 14
XL 14 to 16
2XL 16 to 18
3XL 18 to 20

Sizes can differ from style to style. When a product names the UK size next to the letter in its size selector, for example S (UK 8), go by that product's size.

Size charts in centimetres

Most products have a size chart in centimetres, and each chart's note says what it measures and where it comes from:

  • Body measurements: choose the size that matches your own bust, waist and hips.
  • Garment measurements: the size of the piece itself. Compare them with a similar piece you already own.
  • Foot length: for boots and heels, measure your foot from heel to longest toe.

How to measure

  • Bust: around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level.
  • Waist: around the narrowest part of your waist.
  • Hips: around the fullest part of your hips.
  • A piece you own: lay it flat, measure straight across from side to side, and double the figure to compare it with a chart that gives the full measurement.

Between sizes? The fit note under the sizes on each product page says how that piece fits.

Boots and heels

Sold in UK sizes, shown in the size selector on each product page, with half sizes where the style comes in them. If a size you want is not in the chart, the chart says so; email us before you choose it.

One size

A few pieces come in one size. Their product page says so in the size selector.
