Sizing

We really want your experience at Social Fabric Clothing to be fun and positive!

We want you to open that parcel, try on your gorgeous new piece and have it fit like it should….. first time around!

No one wants to go through the hassle of a returns process 😊

For this reason, we don’t provide generic sizing information.

Head on over to the Product Description page for the item you are interested in, and you will find Exact Sizing Descriptions for that product.

Every item we stock has been carefully measured by us using “Flat Lay Measurements.”

What is a Flat Lay Measurement?

The garment is laid flat (and taught) and measured from side seam to side seam.

Bust: We measure the bust just below the armhole. The measurement you see in the product description chart refers to the width of the chest when lying flat. For the entire measurement, double the length. For example, if the measurement in the product description chart is 42cm, the entire front + back when lying flat is 84cm. When comparing the measurement to your body, measure at the apex (largest point) of your breasts and around your back at the same level. 

Waist: The waist measurement is the smallest part of the waist. The measurement you see in the product description chart refers to the width of the waist when lying flat. For the entire measurement, double the length. For example, if the measurement in the product description chart is 40cm, the entire front + back when lying flat is 80cm. When comparing the measurement to your body, measure at the narrowest part of your waist. 

Hip: The hip is the widest part of your lower body. We measure the widest part of the lower half of the dress. For the entire measurement, double the length. For example, if the measurement in the product description chart is 42cm, the entire front + back when lying flat is 84cm. When comparing the measurement to your body, measure the widest part of your hips.
