FAQ's

Is the length of the garments the only difference between height ranges A and B?

No. The length of the garments is the biggest difference. However, all the garment measurements are modified for their respective height range, such as neck to waist, armhole, shoulder width, sleeve length, inseams, etc.

Do your Garments fits correctly in each height range? 

Yes, we conduct regular tests on our garments using bodies of varying sizes and heights within each height range to guarantee that the garments fit and are graded accurately. 

Please take into account that individuals with shorter bodies may have either a long or short torso. Therefore, it's important to be mindful of your body proportions. We cannot be held responsible if the garment does not fit you within your height range due to your unique body proportions. For instance, you could be 1.49m/4'11" tall with a long torso and arms, in which case Range B clothing (shirts & blouses) may be more suitable for you, while Range A trousers may fit better due to shorter legs.
