Size guide
Silk Camisoles & Silk Slips
If you plan to wear your silk camisole or slip as a layering piece or outerwear during the day, measure while wearing the bra you would normally wear with it. This will provide the most accurate fit.
For the best fit, stand naturally with your feet about hip-width apart. Use a soft measuring tape and avoid pulling it too tightly—it should sit comfortably against your body.
