Sizes
When selecting a size, measure around your bust (or the widest part of your torso). For a looser fit, select the size where the garment circumference is 9-12 cm larger than your measurements (this is 9-12 cm of positive ease). If you desire a more fitted garment, then only add 5-8 cm of positive ease to your bust measurement.
