⟡ About Fit & Ease
How Our Sizing Works
Misses Fit
Our misses block is drafted for a true hourglass figure with broader shoulders, a full B‑cup bust, a long waist, and a height of 5’7″. Fitted styles generally include:
- 3″ full‑bust ease
- 0–1″ waist ease
- 2″ hip ease
Additional design ease may be added depending on the style. To understand the finished garment fit, refer to the body measurements in the chart and add the ease amounts listed above.
Plus Fit
Our plus block is drafted for a different distribution of curves than the misses block, with narrower shoulders, a fuller waist and hip, a slightly shorter waist length, and a height of 5’7″. Plus patterns include cup sizes from C–F, which vary by style. Fitted styles include:
- 2.5″ full‑bust ease (to support a smooth fit on a fuller bust)
- 1″ waist ease
- 4″ hip ease
Additional design ease may be added depending on the style. To understand the finished garment fit, refer to the body measurements in the chart and add the ease amounts listed above.
