How it fits
Four sizes, cut and sewn near Milan. Tops and bottoms are sold separately, so you are never forced into one size.

Take your measurements first, then read across. All four sizes are here, so you do not have to guess and check.

Body measurements, not garment measurements. Tops and bottoms are sold separately, so you can take two different sizes.
How to measure
Measure over bare skin or close fitting underwear, standing straight, with the tape level all the way round.
Bust
Measure at the fullest part of your chest. Pull the tape as tight as you can without changing the shape of your breasts.
Waist
Wrap the tape around the narrowest part of your torso, usually a couple of centimetres above the navel.
Hips
Wrap the tape around the widest part of the seat.
If you are between sizes
Bikinis
Take the size that fits each half. Tops and bottoms are sold separately for exactly this reason, and most women do not wear the same size top and bottom.
One-pieces
One garment has to fit bust and hips at once. If your two measurements fall in different sizes, take the larger of the two.
If you are 175 cm or taller, or your torso is proportionally long, take one size up in any one-piece.
Still not sure
