SIZING
Chikan garments are worn slightly loose and to ensure a comfortable fit for kurtas, kurtis and tops please keep adequate looseness, typically 3 - 6 inches larger than your chest measurements. Keep less space (3 or 4 inch) if you have an average built or want a tighter fitting and more space (5 or 6 inch) if you have an above average built or like a more comfortable fit. If your body measurement falls between two sizes, select the larger size. The tables below provide the garment measurement, body measurement and the popular size as a guideline for your selection. For your chest measure, keep the tape under your arms and measure fullest part of the chest.
