Size guide
My creations shape the silhouette: a shoulder, a waist, a bust. Choosing the right size lets them keep all their allure. Here is how to take your measurements and find your size.
Before you choose
Taking your measurements
Use a tape measure. Measure yourself over light underwear, keeping the tape flat, without pulling it tight. If you can, ask someone to help: the measurements will be more accurate.
Bust
Horizontally, around the fullest part of your bust.
Waist
At your natural waist, the narrowest point, just above the navel.
Hips
Feet together, around the fullest part of your hips, about 20 cm (8 in) below the waist.
The sizes of La Maison
Find your size
My capsules come in French sizes 36 to 42. These are body measurements, not garment measurements: the ease is already built into each cut.
| France | UK | US | Bust | Waist | Hips |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 36 | 8 | 4 | 82 – 86 | 62 – 66 | 88 – 91 |
| 38 | 10 | 6 | 86 – 90 | 66 – 70 | 92 – 95 |
| 40 | 12 | 8 | 90 – 94 | 70 – 74 | 96 – 99 |
| 42 | 14 | 10 | 94 – 98 | 74 – 78 | 100 – 104 |

Depending on the piece
The measurement that matters
Dresses & jumpsuits
Bust · waist · hipsThey follow the whole body: go with the largest of the sizes given by your three measurements. Each product page tells you where the cut is fitted and where it allows ease.
Tops & jackets
Bust · waistGo first by your bust measurement. My jackets have structured shoulders: if you have broad shoulders, take the size up.
Skirts & trousers
Waist · hipsStart with your waist measurement, then check your hips. If they point to the size up, that is the one you need.
Jewellery & accessories
One sizeThe dimensions of each piece are given on its product page.
Between two sizes, choose the larger one.
