A) BUST- Measure around the fullest part of the bust
B) WAIST- Measure around waist at the narrowest point
C) HIPS- Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips
D) INSEAM- Measure the distance from your inner thigh to the bottom of your ankle

Kate, our founder, is our fit model and seen in many of website product images. She's 5'7" tall and has a 27” waist and a 38” hip. Her inseam is 30”. She weighs 133 pounds.
Kate wears a size 4 in the Maven Slim Indigo Power Flex denim and a size 6 in the Maven Slim & Freshley Overall in Black Flex denim. She wears a size 6 in all of Dovetail's canvas workpant styles.
When you try on your pants in any style for the first time, there should be minimal gapping in the back of the waistband nor extra fabric around/below the crotch. They should fit like they just came out of a hot dryer--very fitted in the waist and hips. When sized right, the fabric will conform to your body over time, but not bag out like some fashion stretch jeans do.
Because our denim and other fabrics are premium, they do not lose shape over time. Our stretch fabrics mold to the body due to very high shape memory (proven through lab testing).
