FAQ's

Q: Do your garments fit 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.

Q: Is the length of the garment the only difference between the extra-petite and petite height ranges?  

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.

The garment should fit you more or less the same as the petite model in the images no matter which height range you fall into.

Q: Will the garments still fit me correctly in my height range if I have a short/ long torso?

We will need more information to help you find your correct size, please email us your following body measurements:

  • Height
  • Arm length
  • Front neck to waist OR shoulder to waist
  • Armhole circumference
  • Shoulder width
  • Bust
  • Waist
  • Hips
  • Inseam
