How to Measure

BUST

Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust and center the tape on your back so it's levelled all the way around.

WAIST

Run the tape around your natural waistline, keeping the tape parallel with the floor.

HIPS

Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks. Keep the tape parallel with the floor all the way around.

TIPS:
  • To find your natural waist, bend to one side and find where your torso naturally indents.
  • Wear the undergarments and shoes you're going to wear with your dress when taking measurements.
  • Length is not part of our size chart, but we provide the length of each garment on individual product pages.
  • To measure the length, stand straight with feet together and measure from the shoulder (for dresses), or from the natural waistline (for pants and skirts) to the style's provided hemline length.

Frequently Asked Questions
I ordered the wrong size, can I exchange it?

Yes, our exchanges are always free for up to 60 days after your order is delivered. To initiate an exchange, start here.

I'm between sizes, what size should I order?

If you're between sizes, ordering up will give you a looser, more relaxed look and ordering down result in a tighter, more fitted look. If you're still unsure, please reach out to us, use our size questionnaire. Remember that exchanges are always free, so you can switch sizes if needed.

Do Adrianna Papell garments fit true to size?

We use the above size chart when designing all our garments. However, differences in silhouette and fabric can result in changes to fit. If other customers have noted differences in fit for a specific style, we put those notes in the "Fit" section at the top of the product page.

How do I know if a particular style will stretch?

We note fabric stretch on a 4 point scale on every product page under the "Size & Fit" section.

What is the difference between Adrianna Papell's standard and plus sizes?

All of our straight size garments extend to size 20, with our plus sizes run from size 14 to size 26. While there is overlap in sizes, the plus size garments are designed based on plus size proportions. Thus, a plus size 14 will fit more generously than a straight size 14.
