Lara Size Guide & Fit
These are finished-garment measurements, not recommended body measurements. All measurements below are in inches. Check both the top and skirt charts when choosing your set size.
Top
| Measurement | S | M | L | XL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shoulder | 15 | 15.25 | 15.75 | 16.25 |
| Chest | 37 | 38.5 | 41 | 43.5 |
| Sleeve length | 24 | 24.5 | 24.75 | 25.25 |

| Sleeve opening | 10.75 | 11 | 11.5 | 12.25 |
| Length | 26 | 26.5 | 27 | 28 |
| ½ Bottom sweep | 19.75 | 20.5 | 21.75 | 22.75 |
The top’s bottom sweep is listed as a half-width measurement, not a full circumference. Compare it with the half-width of a similar garment using the same measurement method.
Skirt
| Measurement | S | M | L | XL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Waist | 26 | 28 | 30 | 32 |
| Hip | 38 | 41 | 43 | 45 |
| Length | 37 | 37 | 37 | 37.5 |
How to choose your size
Lara pairs a cotton kebaya top with a V-neckline, pearl-button front and optional ribbon ties with a matching skirt featuring a zip, buckle fastening and elasticated waistband.
- Compare the charts with a similar top and skirt you own and like the fit of, using the same measurement method and units.
- For the top, start with chest and shoulder measurements, then check the armhole, bicep and sleeve opening for comfortable movement.
- Choose a top size that buttons comfortably without pulling or gaping. The optional ribbon ties are a styling detail, not a substitute for enough room through the chest and shoulders.
- For the skirt, check both waist and hip measurements and allow room to sit and move comfortably.
- Check the top, sleeve and skirt lengths for your preferred coverage.
The charts describe the garments, not the body sizes they will fit. Allow room for movement and your preferred fit; this guide does not assume a particular amount of fabric stretch.
Please allow a 1–3 cm measurement discrepancy.
