Sizing:
XS (S, M, L, 1X, 2X, 3X)
To Fit: 28/30 (32/34, 36/38, 40/42, 44/46, 48/50, 52/54)” bust
Finished Bust Size: 40 (40, 50, 50, 60, 60, 60) inches
Suggested ease of 10-15 inches. Sizing is very forgiving in this garment. The only difference in sizes is the sleeve and hem diameters, so it is more important to fit them, rather than the bust. Shown in size M on 38” bust with 12” positive ease.
