🔹 Common Fit Adjustments:

  • Roz & Ali Pants: May run higher in the waist and feel looser in plus sizes.

  • Westport Jeans: Typically relaxed in the waist but snug in the hips—ideal for curvier figures.

  • Petite Styles: Some customers find them slightly longer than expected—check inseam details.

📌 How to Measure Yourself

For the best fit, grab a soft measuring tape and follow these steps:

🔹 Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level. 

🔹 Waist: Measure around your natural waist (the narrowest part of your torso). 

🔹 Hips: Measure around the widest part of your hips, including your seat.
