Sizing: US 00 – 40 with regular and full bust options (approx. UK 6/8 – 34/36, based on our ). Please also check the designer’s size chart and finished garment measurements.
A note from the designer about bust options: To determine if you should use the regular bust front pieces or the full bust front pieces, subtract the circumference of your over bust from the circumference of the fullest part of your bust. If the rounded difference is 3″ (7.5 cm) or less, use the regular bust. If the rounded difference is more than 3″ (7.5 cm), use the full bust.
