Size Guide & Chart

To ensure the perfect fit for your gown, please follow the guide below to measure yourself (or the person you’re purchasing the gown for) and determine the best size using our size charts below.

Bust (A)

What to Measure: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, ensuring the tape measure goes under your arms and across your back.

How to Measure:

Stand straight with your arms relaxed at your sides.
Keep the tape snug but not tight.

Waist (B)

What to Measure: Measure around your natural waistline, which is the narrowest part of your torso. This is usually slightly above your belly button.

How to Measure:

Stand relaxed and do not suck in your stomach.
Ensure the tape measure stays level and isn’t too loose or too tight.

Shoulder Height to Floor (Dress Length)(C)

What to Measure: Measure from the top of your shoulder (at the base of the neck) to the floor.

How to Measure:

Stand straight with bare feet.
Hold the tape measure straight down to the floor ensuring you don't slouch or bend.
If wearing heels, add the heel height to your measurment.

Sleeve Length (D)

What to Measure: Measure from the edge of your shoulder to the desired sleeve length.

How to Measure:

For long sleeves: Measure from the shoulder to the wrist, slightly bending the elbow to allow for natural movement.
For three-quarter sleeves: Measure from the shoulder to 1–2 inches past the elbow.
For short sleeves: Measure from the shoulder to the middle of the biceps.

Depending on the gown you choose, please refer to the appropriate size chart below.

For Children’s Gowns: Use the children’s size chart for younger girls.
For Teen (and Young Adult) Gowns: Use the teen size chart for older girls and women.

Please note: Each gown includes a seam allowance of 2-3 inches at the sides, allowing for easy alterations. If the gown doesn’t fit perfectly, it can be tailored by a local seamstress for a custom fit. If you’re unsure of which size to choose, feel free to contact us for guidance

If you’re having difficulty finding a gown in your size, you can also contact us to pre-order a custom-size gown, made specifically to your measurements. Please allow extra time for such orders—custom sizes gown orders typically take 60-90 days to be completed.

Petticoats

All of our gowns come with built-in petticoats, so an additional petticoat is not necessary. However, if you prefer extra volume for a fuller look, you have the option to purchase an additional petticoat when adding your gown to the cart.

Please note that our petticoats come in different sizes to match the gown size you are purchasing:
