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.

Quick reference: US size to label

Label	US Size	EU	UK
XS	0 – 2	32 – 34	4 – 6
S	4 – 6	36 – 38	8 – 10
M	8 – 10	40 – 42	12 – 14
L	12 – 14	44 – 46	16 – 18
XL	16 – 18	48 – 50	20 – 22

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.

Dresses

Applies to all Obscura dresses — maxi, midi, mini, bodycon, halter, off-shoulder, gowns and lace styles.

Size	Bust	Waist	Hips
XS	31 – 32" (79 – 81 cm)	23 – 24" (58 – 61 cm)	34 – 35" (86 – 89 cm)
S	33 – 34" (84 – 86 cm)	25 – 26" (63 – 66 cm)	36 – 37" (91 – 94 cm)
M	35 – 37" (89 – 94 cm)	27 – 29" (69 – 74 cm)	38 – 40" (97 – 102 cm)
L	38 – 40" (97 – 102 cm)	30 – 32" (76 – 81 cm)	41 – 43" (104 – 109 cm)
XL	41 – 43" (104 – 109 cm)	33 – 35" (84 – 89 cm)	44 – 46" (112 – 117 cm)

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.

Glad I clicked the ad

I saw an ad for Obscura while scrolling and honestly wasn’t expecting much, but the quality surprised me. The jacket I bought feels solid and fits even better than I hoped.

Comfortable but still looks good

What I liked most is that the top I ordered actually feels good to wear all day. Some brands only look good on camera — this one works in real life too.

Looks great but slower shipping

The piece I ordered is really nice and feels more expensive than it was. I just wish it had arrived a bit faster. Still happy with the purchase overall.

Saw it in an ad and went for it

I usually ignore ads, but the style caught my eye and I’m glad I gave it a try. Everything from checkout to delivery was smooth, and the piece feels like it’ll last.

Wearing it non-stop

I’ve been reaching for this jacket almost every day. It just works with everything. Soft on the inside, structured on the outside — a solid buy. I’ve been reaching for this jacket almost every day.

Nice details, just runs small

Love the design and how clean it looks. I would size up next time, though. The fit is a bit snug on the shoulders, but I still wear it a lot. Love the design and how clean it looks.
