Pattern Sizing
Our patterns include two different size ranges. The first is range 4-22 based on a B-cup block. The second is range 20-36 based on a D-cup block. There is an overlap at sizes 20-22 where you can choose which size range you would prefer to use.
B-cup and D-cup refer to dressmakers cup sizes (which differ from bra cup sizes). You can find your dressmakers cup size by measuring the difference between your full bust and your high bust. B-Cup refers to a difference of 2″. D-Cup refers to a difference of 4″. Choose the closest to your measurement for closest fit.
Both size ranges are drafted for a height of 5’4” (165 cm).
