Sizing: US 0 – 30 (approx. UK 8 – 30, based on our standardised size chart) with A, B, C and D bust cup options. Please also check the designer’s size chart and finished garment measurements.

Use the high bust to determine your size, and the difference between your high bust and full bust to choose your cup size. If you are between sizes, size up and fit the pattern as needed. It is always recommended to sew a test garment to confirm fit.

This pattern includes four bust cup options, and the cup size is determined by calculating the difference between the high and full bust. If the difference between your high bust and full bust is 1" (2.5 cm) use the A cup. If the difference is 2" (5 cm) use the B cup. If the difference is 3" (7.5 cm) use the C cup. If the difference is 4" (10 cm) use the D cup. If you have more than a 4" (10 cm) difference, you may need a full bust adjustment.
