SIZES
1 (2, 3, 4, 5) [6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
Finished bust circumference: The front and back are the same width. Bust circumference depends on the length of the tabs at the side. We recommend that you measure across your chest at the fullest point and choose Crossback width of at least 5 cm / 2” more than this. You can then create the tabs to the length that you find most comfortable.
