Penny Dress Size Chart

Please check your body measurements against our size chart before purchasing. Both the dress and shorts have four-way stretch. The measurements below are actual measurements of the garments before stretch.

HOW TO MEASURE

Take measurements over the thinnest layer of clothing possible. Make sure the tape measure is snug around your body. Do not pull it too tight or leave a finger underneath. Ensure a flat measurement against the body. Make sure that the tape measure is straight around the front and the back of the body (level with the ground while standing). We advise taking the measurement twice to ensure accuracy.

CHEST: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, around the apex of your nipple. Drop your arms. 

WAIST: For the dress: this should be the smallest part of your torso, between your bust and your hip. Please note that the shorts are not high-rise. The shorts "waist" measurement in the size chart reflects the top of the shorts, which is lower than a person's actual waist.

HIPS: Measure the largest or fullest part of your body below the waist. This is not your hip bone. This is generally around the fullest part of the bottom and/or thigh, depending on your shape. This measurement is generally approximately 8 in. below the waist line.

DRESS LENGTH: Ask an assistant to take a measurement from your backside, from the base of your neck (where the base of your neck meets your spline) down to where you want the bottom of the shirt to end. Note: For shirts with a collar, this measurement begins at the base of the collar, not the top. Tip: It may be helpful to wear a comparable shirt to help you reference the length of the Retro top versus the one you’re wearing.

SHORTS LENGTH: This is a measurement of the total length of the shorts from top to bottom.

INSEAM: This is a measurement from the crotch to the bottom of the garment.
