Size Guide
Mexican artisan clothing is traditionally designed with a relaxed, comfortable fit. Because these pieces are handmade rather than factory-cut to standardized patterns, sizing can vary slightly from piece to piece. We recommend reading the notes below and reaching out to us if you have any questions before ordering.
General Sizing Notes
- Our embroidered blouses and dresses typically run true to size or slightly generous. If you are between sizes, we suggest sizing down for a closer fit or staying true to size for a relaxed fit.
- Manta and natural cotton fabrics have a small amount of natural give and will soften and ease slightly with wear and washing.
- Sleeve lengths and dress lengths are based on a 5'4" to 5'6" frame. If you are taller, the fit may be slightly shorter than shown.

How to Measure Yourself
Use a soft measuring tape and measure over light clothing or directly against your skin for the most accurate fit.
- Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the ground.
- Waist: Measure around your natural waist -- the narrowest part of your torso, usually about an inch above your navel.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat, keeping the tape parallel to the ground.
