SIZE GUIDE

Viveka Cardigan has an oversize fit. The smaller sizes have a greater positive ease than the larger sizes, to complement the individual body, the best. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 35 cm [13.75 inches] in sizes XS-XL and 25-30 cm [9.75-11.75 inches] for sizes 2XL-3XL.

Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL are equivalent to the European standard sizes, 34 (36) 38 (40) 42 (44) 46 and suit a bust circumference of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm [31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.25 (37.25-39.25) 39.25-43.25 (43.25-47.25) 47.25-51.25 inches].

Ie.: You measure 89 cm [35 inches] around your chest 35 cm [13.75 inches] = 124 cm [48.75 inches]. Meaning you would choose a size S with a finished circumference of 124 cm [48.75 inches].
