Size guide
Camisole No. 9 is designed to have a negative ease of approx. 4.75-6 inches.
The sizes suit a bust circumference of approx. 31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.5 (37.5-39.5) 39.5-43.25 (43.25-47.25) 47.25-51.25 (51.25-55) inches.
Measure yourself before you begin to ensure that you choose the right size. For example, if your chest circumference is 34.75 inches - 4.75/6 inches = 30-28.75 inches, you would choose a size S. If you are in between sizes, choose the smaller size.
