How to Measure

BUST

Wrap a soft measuring tape under your arms and around the fullest part of your chest. Avoid pulling the measuring tape too tightly.

Pro Tip: Keep your favorite undergarment on while you measure to get the most accurate number.

NATURAL WAIST

Stand up straight and relax your stomach, then wrap a soft measuring tape at the midway point between the bottom of your ribcage and your hip bone. Avoid pulling the measuring tape too tightly.

HIP

Stand with your feet hips width distance and flat, then wrap a soft measuring tape around the widest point of your hip.

Pro Tip: Sitting down while you take this measurement ensures accuracy and provides added comfort for the best fit.

INSEAM

Use a soft measuring tape to measure from the highest point of your inner thigh to the bottom of where the pant will hit. For instance, if the inseam is 27”, you’ll measure 27” down.

Pro Tip: Measuring with shoes on lets you see the full picture and ensures your pants fall exactly where you want them.

Great During Pregnancy

"I'm not someone who loves showing that I'm pregnant at all times & this sweater is perfect for giving a bit more privacy while also looking work appropriate. I also didn't want to buy maternity clothes I would never wear again - this is incredibly comfortable & a great mid-weight so definitely something I will use frequently after pregnancy as well"

Love it!

"I love the Montecito Vest in camel. The fit is great however I ordered it in marine in a medium. I’m thinking I would like it to be a bit roomier. Overall, I love all my F and E pieces!"

a bit big

"It’s too late for me, but I would order a smaller size if I was to go back in time. It just seems too oversized for me."
