Fit Guide Crofter
The Slow Wardrobe sizes
We follow our own sizing system, recognising that the traditional system of "ladies dress-sizes" does not account for body shape and height. See how The Slow Wardrobe sizes relate to body measurements HERE.
Crofter Top
This top has a straight silhouette, so do ensure that both the bust AND hip measurements work for you. We recommend that your bust and hip measurements are at least 7.5cm (3in) smaller than the garment measurement to ensure enough room for movement and other garments to wear underneath. Check these garment measurements to give you an idea of their dimensions.

Custom sizes
We do everything we can to be truly size-inclusive. We can highly individualise your Layercake, by adapting the standard fit and/or choosing a non-standard fabric/colour.
