    Garment measurements in inches

    These are garment measurements, not body measurements.

    Model shots are styled to show the vibe. Print, colour and fit match the actual piece. Screen colours can vary a little.

    Method

    How to measure

    1. 01

      Chest

      Wrap a soft tape around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms. Keep it level across the back and snug, not tight.

    2. 02

      Length

      Measure from the highest point of the shoulder, beside the collar, straight down to the bottom hem.

    3. 03

      Shoulder

      Measure across the back from one shoulder seam to the other. On drop-shoulder pieces the seam sits below the natural shoulder line.

    4. 04

      Sleeve

      Measure from the shoulder seam down the outside of the arm to the cuff or sleeve hem.

    Monarchia pieces are cut oversized. Choose your usual size for the intended loose fit, or go one size down for a closer one. Not sure? Lay your favourite oversized piece flat and compare it to the chart.

    Quick-ref tables

    Monarchia pieces are cut oversized. Sizes run S, M, L, XL and XXL. Pick your usual size for the loose, dropped fit, or go one size down for something closer.

    The numbers below are garment measurements (the piece laid flat), not body measurements. Lay a tee you already love flat, measure it the same way, and compare.
