Fit
Our pieces are cut to a contemporary fit — neither oversized nor constricting. Use the tables below to find your size; if you fall between measurements, we generally recommend sizing up for outerwear.
Use a soft tape measure for all measurements. Take measurements over lightweight undergarments, not over bulky clothing. All measurements below are body measurements — not garment measurements.
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, keeping it level across your shoulder blades and under your arms. Do not pull the tape tightly — a relaxed fit gives the most accurate reading.
Measure around your natural waist, which sits just above your hip bones and below your ribcage. Exhale normally before taking the measurement.
Stand with feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat, approximately 20 cm (8 in) below your natural waistline.
Measure along the inner leg from the crotch to the ankle bone. A pair of well-fitting trousers can help you gauge this accurately if you are measuring alone.
Sizes XS through XXL. Measurements are in inches and centimetres.

Our trousers are sized by waist measurement in inches. All styles come in a standard inseam length; refer to the product page for any available short or long options.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 28 | 28 | 71 | 30 | 76 |
| 30 | 30 | 76 | 31 | 79 |
| 32 | 32 | 81 | 31 | 79 |
| 34 | 34 | 86 | 32 | 81 |

Our coats and jackets are designed to be worn over a mid-layer such as a fine knit or blazer. The shoulder seam should sit at the edge of your shoulder; the chest should have 2–3 cm of ease. If you are between sizes and intend to layer heavily, size up.
Knitwear is sized generously to account for natural stretch and our preference for a relaxed, unforced silhouette. Our trousers have a clean, tapered leg and a mid-rise; if you prefer more room through the thigh, go up one waist size.
