How we measure:

On our product listings, you will find an approximate measurement for that style. 

For tops and sweaters, length measurements are taken from the shoulder to the hem of the garment. Width measurements are taken 1" below the garment armhole. Sleeve length measurement are taken on the underside of the sleeve. Many of the hems on the sweaters roll, so measurements are taken relaxed.

For pants, waist measurements are taken straight across the top of the garment. Inseam measurements are taken on the inside of the leg.
