To assist you in confirming your correct size, below is a Matteau measurement chart in both centimetres and inches. If you are between two sizes, we recommend you select the smaller size due to the natural stretch of the fabric and to ensure a firm fit.

For accuracy, have someone else measure you. Ensure the measuring tape is straight (parallel to the floor) and snug, but not tight, to your body.

For tops, take bust and underbust measurements.

For briefs, take waist and hip measurements.

For maillots, take all measurements.

Measurements should be taken as follows:

1. Bust

Measure around the fullest part of you bust - this is usually across your nipple line and straight across your shoulder blades.

2. Underbust

Measure around your ribcage, immediately under your bust.

3. Waist

Measure around your natural waistline - this is usually the narrowest point on your waist.

4. Hips

Measure around the fullest part of your low hip - this is approximately 20cm below your natural waistline and the tape should run across the middle of your buttocks.
