Size chart — Dresses

All figures below are body measurements, not garment measurements. Sizes follow standard Italian sizing (IT 38–46). Measure yourself, compare with the table and choose the size your measurements fall into.

Between two sizes? Size up. This applies especially to bodycon, corset and structured styles.

Dresses

Maxi, midi, mini, bodycon, halter, off-shoulder, gowns and lace styles.

Size	Italy	EU	UK	US	Bust	Waist	Hips
XS	38	34	6	2	80–84 cm	62–66 cm	88–92 cm
S	40	36	8	4	84–88 cm	66–70 cm	92–96 cm
M	42	38	10	6	88–92 cm	70–74 cm	96–100 cm
L	44	40	12	8	92–96 cm	74–78 cm	100–104 cm
XL	46	42	14	10	96–100 cm	78–82 cm	104–108 cm

Bodycon, corset and structured styles sit closer to the body — size up if you are at the upper end of a range. Fluid maxi and ruched styles have more give.

How to measure

Wear close-fitting clothing or just underwear. Use a soft tape measure and keep it level and snug, never tight.

BustAround the fullest part of the bust, tape level across the back.

WaistAround the narrowest part of the torso, roughly 2–3 cm above the navel.

HipsAround the fullest part of the hips and seat, feet together.

This chart is general guidance based on standard Italian women's sizing. Fit varies by fabric, cut and style, and every garment has slightly different ease built in, so individual product pages may show small variations.
