Embarking on an online shopping spree can be exciting, but nothing dampens the joy like receiving a package only to find out it doesn't fit quite right. Fear not! With these simple steps, you can confidently measure yourself against a size chart before hitting that "Buy Now" button.
In the relaunch of this shop mid April 2024, I've worked hard to try to standardize sizing as much as possible to Australian sizes. This means you can simply choose your size from the filters, ie. 16, 18, 20, and the results will be the sizes I've taken the guesswork from for you. So you don't need to choose between other size denominations, 1XL, 2XL, it's already done for you.
Of course make sure that you take note of the item description and the individual size chart to ensure perfect compatibility with your shape.
š Understand Your Measurements: Before you start browsing, grab a measuring tape and jot down your bust, waist, hips, and inseam measurements. If unsure how to measure, many online guides can walk you through the process.
š Compare with Size Charts: Every brand has its own sizing chart, so resist the urge to guess based on your usual size. Instead, refer to the brand's specific measurements. Most online stores provide detailed size charts for each item.
š Take Note of Fabric and Style: Consider the fabric and style of the garment you're eyeing. A stretchy fabric might allow for a bit of leeway in sizing, while structured pieces may require precise measurements for a perfect fit.
š¤ Mind the Variations: Keep in mind that sizing can vary across brands and even within the same brand for different items. Don't be discouraged if your measurements fall into a different size category than usual.
š¬ Read Reviews and Feedback: Utilize the power of online reviews. Often, shoppers will share their experiences with sizing, helping you gauge whether a particular item runs large, small, or true to size.
The key to successful online shopping lies in mastering your measurements. By understanding your body and taking the time to compare against size charts, you can minimize the chances of disappointment and ensure that every purchase fits like a dream. Happy shopping!
