We all know that sizes vary from brand to brand so with all garments that I am selling I shall provide comprehensive measurements from the garment laid flat as well as any size indications that appear on the garment. Please be sure to check your actual measurements against mine remembering that a garment with a 82cm bust measurement would be skin tight on you if you have a 82cm bust so you will need a slightly bigger size to breathe and move comfortably.
European sizes are labelled differently from those in the UK so check actual measurements carefully. Vintage sizes in particular are nothing like our modern sizes so it is vital to check measurements before buying.
