🎯 How to Determine Your Perfect Fit
-
Measure your bust: Wrap tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping it parallel to the floor
-
Measure your waist: Find your natural waistline (narrowest part) and measure comfortably—this is where the dress will cinch
-
Measure length preference: From shoulder to mid-calf to ensure authentic rockabilly midi length
-
Consider the swing: This A-line silhouette is designed to twirl—it skims the body at the waist then flows freely
-
Between sizes? Size up for a more relaxed fit; true to size for that classic fitted bodice with full skirt
-
Petticoat ready: The A-line cut works beautifully with or without a petticoat for extra volume
