Size guide

Sweater No. 24 has an oversize fit. The smaller sizes have a greater positive ease than the larger sizes in order to complement the individual body the best. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 35 cm [13.75 inches] in size XS-XL and 25-30 cm [10-12 inches] in size 2XL-4XL.

The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) are equivalent to European standard sizes and suit a bust circumference of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) cm [31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.5 (37.5-39.5) 39.5-43.25 (43.25-47.25) 47.25-51.25 (51.25-55) inches].

 

For example: You measure 88 cm [35.75 inches] at your bust + 35 cm [13.75 inches] = 123 cm [48.5 inches]. Meaning you would choose a size S with a circumference of 123 cm [48.5 inches].
