HOW TO MEASURE YOUR BODY:

Please, get the measuring tape, and don’t forget to keep it tight but comfortable while measuring your body. Measurements are more accurate if done by someone else.  

1. NECK CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around your neck.

2. SHOULDERS LENGTH: Measure the straight line between the top point of your shoulders.

3. BUST CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around your body, under your arms, and over the fullest part of your bust. Dear Ladies, for the best fit, please measure your bust when wearing a bra.

4. UNDERBUST CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around your body, right under your bust.

5. NATURAL (HIGH) WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around your body at the natural waistline (usually 1-2 cm above the belly button).

6. LOW WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE (belt line): Measure around your body 3-5 cm under the natural waistline.

7. HIPS CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.

8. THIGH CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around the fullest part of your thigh. 

9. CALF CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around the fullest part of your calf.

10. ARM CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around your biceps (at the fullest part).

11. FOREARM CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around your arm ~5 cm below the elbow.

12. WRIST CIRCUMFERENCE: Measure around your wrist (where you would wear a watch).

Please, get the measuring tape, and don’t forget to keep it tight but comfortable while measuring your body. Measurements are more accurate if done by someone else.

 

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR CLOTHING LAY FLAT:

Lay the garment flat and spread it evenly on the straight, even and hard surface. Smooth out any wrinkles. Measure the straight lines.

• For trousers & leggings: measure waist, inseam, clothing length.
• For skirts & shorts: measure waist, clothing length.
• For tops, shirts, coats & dresses: measure shoulders or one-shoulder length, chest and waist, clothing length.

Where should you get measuring tape?

• Buy it at any sewing supplies or hobby shop.
• Visit a sewing salon and ask the tailor or seamstress to take your measurements.
• An alternative: Measure with a piece of rope or string, then place it to the ruler.

IRONING INSTRUCTIONS

Please note, the item is shipped tightly packed, so the garment will have crumples when unpacked.

Please iron the creases and wrinkles if you wish the garment to look like on our website's photo.

Sometimes, to even out the fabric, it helps to hang the garment on the wide padded hanger, spray generously with the water, and leave it hanging for a couple of days. Tip: Leave it hung in the shower room.

But, for a non-stretchy garment, it is always best to use a standard iron or steam iron. Tip: You may also bring the clothing to the tailors, dry-cleaning, or another place that provide professional ironing services.

CARE & CLEANING ADVICE

• Follow the textile care instructions on the label
• Don't wash your clothes too often
• Remove stains manually
• Air the clothes to freshen up after each use

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS

• Turn clothes inside out.
• Close buttons and zips.
• Use a laundry bag.
• Wash with same colors (as color may transfer to other garments)
• Use a mild detergent made for this color of the fabric. Do not use a universal detergent that contains oxygen for bleaching purposes.
• The use of special detergents produced for the garment's fabric and the color is recommended.
• Always follow the dosing instructions for detergent. We recommend using less detergent (unless the garment is dirty and stained).
• You can avoid ceases by using a fabric conditioner or detergent with a softener.
• Use cold wash at max 30°C & gentle washing cycle.
• Use short programs for lightly soiled laundry.
• Preferably do not tumble dry. 
• Remove excess water and dry flat.
• When almost dry, hang on the wide-padded hangers.

Not sure how to clean? Bring the garment to a professional clothing cleaning service such as Dry Cleaners or Wet Cleaners.
