| EAST ESSENCE-SIZE CHART |
Tunics/Kurtis measurements run about 2 inches larger and Abayas & Jilbabs run about 4 inches larger than the body measurements below for modest fit. Since the garments have this extra room in addition to the measurements on the chart, please try and select a size that matches your literal measurements. You might want to size up on the Tunics/Kurti’s for a modest fit, but Abayas and Jilbabs come with the additional room in them already.

HOW TO MEASURE
CUSTOM LENGTH: If you would like to order a custom length in Abayas/Jilbabs please measure yourself from the top of the shoulder (point that touches the neck) till your ankles or to the ground (depending on where you wish your garment to be till). Select that length from the dropdown box. Typically for a 5'6" tall person 57 would be an ideal length reaching below ankles. The table at the bottom of the page can help with selecting lengths as well. Please use it for guidance only. (The lower range measurement means length till ankles and the higher measurement means touching the ground.)
|
CHEST: Measure around fullest part of chest, keeping tape up under arms and around shoulder blades.
WAIST: Measure around natural waistline, keeping measuring tape comfortably loose. If between sizes, order next size up.
ARM/SLEEVE: Bend elbow and measure from center of back of neck, over shoulder, past elbow, and to wrist.
HIPS: Measure around the fullest part of hips, 8 inches below natural waist (petite sizes 7 inches below natural waist).
INSEAM: Measure similar pants that fit well. Lay them flat with front and back creased smooth. Measure from crotch to bottom of leg hem along inseam. |
