Size Guide
There’s no standard for sizing in Australia and to be honest it’s all one big hot mess. So Curvature has it's own standard.
Curvature sizing is generous and lots of feedback suggests our sizing is as generous as one size larger than what you might get on the rack in a bricks and mortar store.
That's why I really encourage you to measure yourself or shoot me an email (hello@curvatureclothing.com.au) or a DM on Insta for a quicker response. If you're still unsure, you might want to check out our revolutionary way to get your perfect size, with a Curvature Sizing Kits.
The following table shows measurements for bust, waist, skirt length, sleeve circumference and total dress length according to size. I really, strongly, absolutely encourage you to either measure yourself or measure a similar garment you already have (laying flat) for comparison and work out what size you are according to the guide.
All measurements are in centremetres and given the handmade nature of each item, these measurements are a guide that may vary by 1 to 2cms.
NB: This style dress is a relaxed fit and not designed to be a fitted garment.
- To measure your bust, run the measuring tape flat around your body to include the fullest part of your bust.
- To measure your waist, run the measuring tape flat around you body, generally between your bust and belly button.
- To measure your arm, run the measuring tape flat, all around to include the top part of your arm.
- The length measurement is taken from the top shoulder seam to the bottom hem.
** Please also note that the dresses shown in all photos has a 7-10cm shorter hem than what's listed in the below size guide. Customisations are easily available and given as an option on the product page.
I (Lisa) wear a Curvature size XS/16 and I'm 163cm tall. My bust size is 122cm, a 119cm waist and a 39cm arm width.
Each measurement given is for the total diameter around the dress/sleeve etc
