Size Guide
All our Shirts are designed for maximum fit and comfort, and some customers prefer to wear them looser than others. Please refer to our guide below for body mesurements in both CM's and INCHES:
Please note our cut is fairly generous around the bust. Tight across the bust is not a good look in a shirt.

HOW TO MEASURE YOURSELF...
REALLY WELL!
How you go about this makes an enormous difference to the accuracy of the measurements. This is our preferred method. In true Blue Peter fashion you will need a measuring tape, string and some sellotape!
All measurements are best taken when you are wearing underwear only.
-
BUST - Wear only a simple bra and measure around the bust at the fullest part. Make sure the tape is even around the back.
-
WAIST - This is much higher than you expect, it is the narrowest part. Tie a length of string or knitting wool around your waist to mark the waist and then measure with a tape around the position of the string. Leave the string on the waist in order to take your next measurement.
-
HIP - At the side of your hip, measure 20cm down from the string around your waist. Use the sellotape to mark this spot. Now measure around the hips at this point remembering to keep the tape level.
- BODY LENGTH - This is always specified from the top of the shoulder down.
