How to Measure

Find your perfect size

For the most accurate results, have someone else measure you. Also, please keep in mind that it is best to measure while you're wearing undergarments, not a shirt or pants.

Who can wear petites?

The most flattering petite fit not only addresses height, but proportions, too. Petite sizing is designed for women 5'4" and under, but there are other factors that determine who should wear petites. If you have narrow shoulders or proportionately shorter arms, you may be able to wear petite tops. If your legs are proportionately shorter than your torso, you may want to try petite pants and skirts.

It's a proportion, not a size.®

Christopher & Banks offers the perfect fit for your size. We have proportionally adjusted the bust, waist, and hip measurements to different dimensions for Missy, Women and Petite figures-it's what makes your sizing unique. Christopher & Banks creates clothing scaled to proportionately accurate sizing, rather than making the same dimensions larger or smaller. We are happy to offer this variety and hope you find some beautiful additions for your wardrobe that fit your body, just as it is.
