Before hitting "Complete Purchase" on that online cart, run this quick 4-point sizing checklist to confirm you won't have to return it.
1. Fabric stretch Index
Check the fabric composition. 100% Cotton has zero stretch. If it is denim or canvas, size up. If it contains 2% or more Elastane/Spandex, you can select your true body size.
2. Silhouette Ease
Is the style labeled "Oversized"? If so, the brand has built extra space into the pattern. Order a size down if you prefer a standard, closer fit.
