Find Your Perfect Fit

 

Getting the right size is the most important step before you start sewing. A well-fitted pattern saves you time, fabric — and frustration! 😊 Take your measurements carefully and compare them to the size chart for your chosen pattern. When in doubt, always size up — it's much easier to take in a seam than to add fabric.

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape. Wear your usual underwear or a well-fitting bra. Stand naturally — don't hold your breath or pull the tape too tight.

High bust
Around your chest just above the bust, under your armpits
Full bust
Around the fullest part of your bust
Underbust
Directly under your bust, where a bra band sits
Waist
Around the narrowest part of your torso
Hip
Around the fullest part of your hips and seat
Bras & bralettes

We offer three pattern ranges to suit different bust shapes and support needs. Read the descriptions below to find the right range for you, then use the matching size chart.

Not sure which range is right for you? Regular = lighter support, no cup shaping. Cup-based = defined cups, fits A–H. Full support = engineered for larger busts with extra structure and lift.

Regular bralettes

Wire-free, stretchy designs without defined cup shaping. Size is based on your full bust and underbust measurements. Great for beginners and everyday comfort. Sizes XS–XL.

Cup-based bralettes & bras

Shaped cups for a more defined, supportive fit. Find your band size from your underbust, then your cup size from the difference between full bust and high bust. Sizes XS–5XL, cups A–H.

Panties, thongs & swim bottoms

All panty, thong and swim bottom patterns use the same size chart based on your waist and hip measurements. Match the larger of the two to the chart. If your waist and hip fall into different sizes, size up and adjust the waist with the seam allowance.

Bodysuits

The Adele Bodysuit consists of a bra top and a bottom piece — each sized separately. Start by finding your bra top size using your bust and underbust measurements, then check your waist and hip for the bottom. If you're between sizes, choose the same size for both top and bottom as a starting point.
