Size Guide

This is a free-size boubou gown with very wide bell sleeves. Chest width is the full sweep of the garment across its widest point, not a body measurement, which is why the number is large. Body length is shoulder to hem.

How to measure

Measure over light clothing with a soft tape. Keep the tape level and snug, never tight. Ask someone to help if you can.

Women
Bust not your bra size
Wear an unpadded bra, relax your arms at your sides, and pull the tape across the fullest part of the bust. Many of our gowns have a built-in bra.
Waist the smallest part
Find the narrowest part of your torso, usually about an inch above the belly button. Keep the tape slightly loose so you can breathe.
Hips the widest part
Find the widest part of your hips, usually about seven inches below the natural waist. The tape should brush across both hipbones.
Hollow to floor gowns and long dresses
Stand straight with your feet together, in bare feet. Start at the hollow between your collarbones and pull the tape straight down to the floor.
Height
Stand straight in bare feet and measure from the top of your head straight down to the floor.
Men
Chest
Pull the tape across the fullest part of the chest, under the arms, and keep it level all the way round your back.
Shoulder seam to seam
Measure across the back, from one shoulder point to the other.
Sleeve
From the shoulder point down to the wrist.
Top length agbada, kaftan and senator sets
From the shoulder point down to where you want the hem to fall.
Trouser length
From the waistband down to the ankle.

Wearing heels? On custom-sized floor-length dresses and dresses with a train we add 5 cm for heels.

If you fall between two sizes on the chart, take the larger one - a tailor can take a garment in, but cannot let one out.

Before you buy

How do I choose my size?

Open the size guide on this page. Where the maker has given us a measurement chart we publish it in full, in inches and centimetres. Where they have not, the guide shows you how to measure yourself and you can email info@arinze.store with your measurements and we will advise. Measurements are taken flat by the supplier, so allow a 3-4 cm difference. If you are between sizes on a fitted piece, take the larger one.

When will my order arrive?

Orders are processed within 1-3 business days, excluding weekends and holidays, then ship in 3-15 business days. The estimated delivery window for today's date is shown next to the buy button. You get an order confirmation email, then a separate email with tracking once it ships. Delivery dates are estimates, not guarantees - carrier volume and weather can cause delays.

What does shipping cost?

Free standard shipping on U.S. orders over $75. A flat $5.99 applies to U.S. orders under $75. The rate that applies to your order is shown at checkout before you pay.

Can I return or exchange it?

Yes - request a return within 30 days of delivery. Items must be unused, unworn and unwashed, free of odours, stains or makeup, in original packaging with tags intact, with your order number. We accept exchanges for a different size, colour or style subject to inventory. Return shipping is covered by us where the return is the result of our error; otherwise it is yours. Email info@arinze.store to start one.

What cannot be returned?

Final sale unless they arrive defective or incorrect: opened beauty, skincare or personal-care products; intimate apparel and earrings for pierced ears; custom, personalised or made-to-order items; perishable goods; and clearance items. Approved refunds go back to your original payment method, typically within 5-10 business days.
