HOW TO KNOW WHAT SIZE TO CHOOSE?
Where to measure
We've made shopping as easy as possible! You can either measure yourself or select the size you're most comfortable with at other retailers. However, we recommend checking your body measurements against our sizing chart, as it's designed to accommodate all women. Here's how to find the perfect fit:
- Bust: Measure around the center of your chest, making sure to wear an unpadded bra.
- Waist: Measure around your waist, starting from your belly button.
- Hip: Measure around the widest part of your booty, from mid-hip bones and around.
- Thigh: Measure around the thickest part of one thigh, directly under your booty.

Our fabric is designed to have a semi-matte finish. If it fits too snugly on your body, it may show an underlying sheen that reflects light. This sheen is an indication that the fit might be too tight and could potentially restrict your movement. It's important that the clothes feel comfortable and allow freedom of movement.
Remember: you are not meant to fit clothes. Clothes are meant to fit you!
Leggings are meant to fit you, not you fit them... The bottom of the band should sit comfortably low at the front, just on your bikini line, and taper off higher at the back to allow plenty of room for your booty. Think of it as low at the front, high at the back.
Once you've got them on, it's time for a movement test. Squat, jump, and wriggle around. The band should remain in place, not rolling down or shifting as you move. If it stays put, you've likely found your perfect fit.
Feeling a little firmness in the crotch area initially? Don't worry, our stretch fabric is designed to gently mould to your unique body shape as you wear them in. Give them a little time to adjust to you. You're one of a kind, and your leggings should be, too!
