Size & Style Notes

Don't Be A Slave To The Label

Just like women, our shirts come in a variety of sizes. Our designers and manufacturers each have their own fit models, each of whom is unique (like us). We will do our best to give you an idea of the size we think might work for you based on our own experience as well as with our customers. If you have any additional questions drop us a line or call and we'll see if we can make a recommendation. 

General Sizing Suggestions:

Claridge and King Boyfriend Shirts: Oversized through the shoulders and bust. Trimmer fit through the hips and rear. Most of our customers choose one size down in this shirt. If you carry extra weight in your stomach or hips you may want to stick with your regular size, however we don't usually recommend sizing up. Boyfriend shirts are also long, with an average back length of 34" so plan on wearing these with leggings or skinny jeans.

Fitted Shirts: Designed to fit closer to the body. Many of our customers size up in the Claridge and King fitted shirts, particularly if you are busty or have wide shoulders. Sizing up also works well if you are Petite but would like the Boyfriend Shirt look. Many of our fitted shirts are also listed as European Fit, which is a trimmer fit overall.

Relaxed Fit: Designed not to hug your body, you can usually stick with your usual size. If the fit is also a bit oversized or perhaps fitted in a specific area we will note that in the individual item description. 

International Sizing: We source our shirts from all over the globe. Some of our shirts are tagged with French sizing while others may be Italian. Please refer to the US size listed for best fit. 

Stretch/European fit: The sizes listed on the shirt's drop down menu will show both the Euro sizing and the American size. Proportions will be smaller in general than American sizing. We find many of our customers do best by choosing one size up.

Long: We consider a shirt to be Long if it covers your rear and has a longer front length as well. We find this TAG helpful when you are looking for something you can wear with leggings or perhaps as a cover up. Some of our petite customers can wear long styles as dresses. It is not a Tall and it does not imply sleeve length. 

Drop Tail: The back hem is longer than the front. Drop tails will usually cover your rear but because of the shorter front length they may not work well with leggings unless you are petite. They do usually look great with skinnies or fitted pants. If you would like a measurement, drop us a note or give us a call and we'll measure your size.

Unisex: Our collection of unisex shirts are looser fitting throughout the body, including the bust, tummy, hips, and arms. Men's sizing means go down one size if you want it big and roomy, two sizes for a relaxed fit.
