Size Guide

Use this guide to help you measure at home and choose the best Nucleus fit before placing your order.

How to Measure at Home

For the most accurate fit, use a soft measuring tape and measure close to the body without pulling the tape too tight. If you are between sizes or unsure, contact the Nucleus team before placing your order.

Before You Start

What to Measure

Use these key body measurements when choosing your Nucleus size. Measurements should be taken around the fullest or narrowest part of each area as explained below.

Bust

Bust

Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape straight across your back.

Waist

Waist

Measure around the narrowest part of your waist, without pulling the tape too tight.

Hips

Hips

Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat.

Length

Length

For dresses, pants or tops, measure from the point where the garment would start to where you want it to end.

Choosing Your Size

Once you have your measurements, compare them to the product details or size chart. If one measurement falls into a different size, choose the size that gives you the most comfort for the garment type.

For fitted styles, your bust, waist and hip measurements are especially important. For relaxed or flowing styles, you may have more flexibility depending on how you prefer the garment to sit.

Quick Fit Tips

Fit by Garment Type

Different garments fit differently. Use the notes below to understand which measurements matter most when choosing your size.

Tops & Dresses

Start with your bust measurement, then check your waist and hip measurements depending on the style. For fitted dresses, all three measurements matter.

Pants & Skirts

Use your waist and hip measurements first. If you prefer a more relaxed fit, choose the size that gives you more room through the hips and seat.

Relaxed Styles

Some Nucleus styles are designed to be loose, flowing or flexible. In these cases, your preferred fit may matter more than choosing the closest exact size.

Still Unsure About Your Size?

If you are between sizes, unsure about a specific garment, or need help choosing the best fit, contact the Nucleus team before placing your order. We can guide you based on the style and your measurements.

Before You Order

Please use this guide as a helpful starting point. Each style may fit slightly differently depending on the fabric, cut and silhouette.
