Size Guide - Chikankari Official

Selecting the right size is important for the perfect balance of comfort, fit, and style. Follow the guide below to choose the correct size based on your body measurements.

Understand the Fit You Want

• Fitted Look: Choose a garment size that is 2 inches larger than your bust size for a more body-hugging fit.

• Relaxed Fit (Recommended): Choose a garment size that is 4 inches larger than your bust size for a comfortable and breezy fit, especially ideal for Chikankari outfits.

Example:

If your bust size is 36 inches:

• M / 38 -> Fitted look

• L / 40 -> Relaxed fit (Recommended)

Take Accurate Body Measurements

Use a measuring tape and measure carefully.

Bust – Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape snug but not tight.

Waist – Measure around your natural waistline, usually just above the belly button.

Hip – Measure around the fullest part of your hips, approximately 20 cm (8 inches) below your waistline.

These measurements help you choose the correct size for both tops and bottoms.

How to Choose Based on Your Measurements

• Use your bust measurement for tops/kurtis.
• Use your waist and hip measurements for bottoms such as pants, palazzos, or trousers.

• Compare your body measurements with the garment measurements provided in the size chart.
• Garment measurements refer to the actual size of the garment when laid flat.

Important Tips

• All measurements are provided in inches and represent garment measurements.
• If your measurements fall between two sizes, choose the larger size for a more comfortable fit.
• A larger garment can always be altered, while a smaller one may be difficult to adjust.
• If you have a larger tummy, waist, or hips, measure those areas carefully and consider sizing up, especially for bottoms.
• Our garments generally have little to no margin, so please select your size carefully.
• Since all our pieces are handmade and hand-stitched, slight measurement variations may occur.
• If the fit isn’t perfect, minor alterations can easily be done, especially with a larger size.
• Fabric types such as cotton, rayon, modal, or chanderi, and garment styles may affect the way the outfit fits and falls.
• Please refer to the product description for garment length details.
