This measurement chart is meant to be a tool in your toolbox to find the right fit. If your measurements show you may fit into more than one size, prioritize hip measurement over waist. Consider the level of stretch in the fabric you're interested in – if you find you can fit in more than one size, the smaller size may work better in high stretch, and the larger may work better in a low stretch fabric.

ReTooled Fit: Taking New Measures

Over the past several years, the Dovetail product team has received feedback from our customers that many have to size up in our product, especially in sizes 16 and above. 

Many women who technically fit size 24 weren’t able to fit that size in our apparel. We knew we had work to do and that process of reframing, wear testing and fine tuning, resulted in our ReTooled Fit Project.
In Fall 2023, we are piloting the ReTooled Fit in our new, Old School High Rise. We invite your feedback as you try our new pattern!
If you are a loyal customer 16 and above, please note you should review your measurements– you may need to order a size or two smaller! If you are unsure of your size in the ReTooled Fit style, please use the fitting chart directly below. Thank you for being part of the crew as we pilot this new pattern project!
