How to Measure Yourself

Waist: measure around your body approximately 5cm below your natural waist where the waistband of trousers normally sit.
Lower hip: wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of your hips and bottom.

Girls' Bralettes:
We feel that there isn’t a set size for bodies at different ages, and we don’t want to put any additional pressure on young girls, so our sizing looks a little different. We have 4 sizes, all named after Ugandan towns! We suggest using band width as a starting point, although do get in touch if you have any specific sizing questions.Size | Band Width (in) | Band Width (cm) | Fits Ages (Approx.) | Worn By: |
