A Few Pro Tips
- When in doubt, size up! Kids grow quickly, and a slightly larger size offers more room for comfort and movement.
- Our garment measurements are listed in the charts. For a comfy fit, choose a size with a chest measurement that is 2-3 inches larger than your child's actual chest measurement.
- All our pajamas and lehenga skirts feature a comfortable elasticated waistband to accommodate growing tummies.
- If you have any questions, our customer service team is always happy to help you find the perfect size.
Sizing FAQs
What if my child is between sizes?
We always recommend sizing up! It's better for the garment to be a little loose with room to grow than too tight. Kids grow quickly, and the extra room ensures comfort.
Are the measurements for the child's body or the final garment?
The measurements provided in our charts are for the finished garment itself. For a comfortable fit, please choose a size with a chest measurement that is 2-3 inches larger than your child's actual body measurement. This is called "ease" and allows for movement.
How much do your ethnic wear outfits shrink after washing?
We use high-quality fabrics designed to minimize shrinkage. However, we recommend washing in cold water and line drying to best maintain the original size and fit. Always check the care label on the specific garment for detailed instructions.
The 'Quick Size Finder' gave a different result than the chart. Which one should I follow?
The Quick Size Finder is a great starting point for a general recommendation! However, we always advise double-checking the detailed size chart for the specific garment type (e.g., Sherwani, Lehenga) as fits can vary slightly between styles. The detailed chart will always give you the most accurate information.
