Some tips to get the best fit for your shape

Want to have the correct fit?

As with all stretch fabrics, sometimes two sizes may actually fit, so finding the correct one is essential to make sure your garment fits perfectly.

Many of the issues with fit are caused from wearing a size that is too large. If it is too small you know that it doesn’t feel right. But if you are wearing a size that is too large it means that the fabric is not working for you, doing what stretch fabric is supposed to do – provide support, smooth and define your figure.

Things to look for...

Wrinkles across the tummy...

  • The size may be too big so try a smaller size.
  • The powermesh liner is designed to stretch and provide control across your tummy.
  • Wrinkles means there is too much fabric.

Baggy bottom...

  • The size may be too big so try a smaller size.
  • The fabric should fit smooth and snug over the bottom

Bottom cheeks showing...

  • The size may be too small so try a bigger size.
  • All bottoms are designed to give coverage and support the bottom.

Gaping at the neck...

  • Too much fabric.
  • Try a size smaller for a smoother fit.

Saggy bust, no support... (There are two options)

  • Try a size down. The fabric should stretch over and support the bust,

    OR if the size is correct,

  • adjust the straps so they are tighter. Straps should not dig in but should sit comfortably on the shoulders or around the neck.

Bust spilling over the top...

  • Cup size is too small. Try the next cup size up. I.e. from 12B/C to 12 D/DD.

Now you have the correct fit - get out there and feel fabulous!

How to Measure

Ladies Sizing

Measure whilst standing in your underwear. All sizing is based on a height of 168cm (5’6”) so the exact fit may differ due to body torso length & height. If you fall in between sizes round it up to the bigger size.

How to Measure

Bust: Measure over the bust at the widest part.
Waist: Measure around your natural waistline.
Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.


What's Your Size?

Finding Your Size

Bikini Top / Bra Cup Sizing

Measurement 1: Underband Size

Measure around your body, underneath your bust on your rib-cage. Hold the tape firm but not too tight. Keep it parallel to the floor. Example of 79cm = 14.

Measurement 2: Cup Size

Measure around your body over the fullest part of your bust. Work across from your underband size to find your measurement s– this will be your cup size. Example of 97cm = C cup.

Bikini Cup Size needed is a 14C.
