Size Chart Dresses

Use this guide to find your perfect fit across every Obscura piece. All measurements are body measurements (not garment measurements). Sizes follow US women’s standard sizing. Measurements are shown in inches with centimeters in smaller text below.

Between two sizes? We recommend sizing up for a comfortable, flattering fit — especially for fitted styles, knit pieces, and dresses with structured bodices.

How to measure yourself

Wear close-fitting clothing or just underwear. Use a soft fabric tape measure and keep it level and snug — not tight.

BustMeasure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level across your back.

Underbust (band)Measure directly under your bust, where a bra band would sit.

WaistMeasure around the narrowest part of your torso, usually about an inch above the belly button.

HipsMeasure around the fullest part of your hips and seat, feet together.

InseamFrom the inner crotch seam straight down to the bottom of your ankle.

ShoulderFrom the outer edge of one shoulder bone, straight across the back to the other.

Bodycon, corset and structured styles run closer to the body — size up if you measure at the upper end of your range. Flowing maxi and ruched styles have more give.
