SIZE GUIDE
Size Guide – Caftans & Wedding Dresses
At our Marrakech workshop, each creation is handmade with passion.
To ensure your caftan or wedding dress fits perfectly, it is essential to choose the right size.
This guide will show you how to take your measurements and choose the perfect fit.
How to take your measurements
For a perfect fit, use a soft tape measure and follow these steps:
1. Chest measurement
Measure around the fullest part of your chest, without squeezing too tightly.
2. Waist size
Measure the smallest part of your waist, just above your belly button.
3. Hip measurement
Measure the widest part of your hips, including the buttocks.
4. Total length
Measure from shoulder to floor, wearing the shoes you will be wearing on the day.
5. Sleeve length
Measure from shoulder to wrist, with arm slightly bent.
Tip: Take your measurements wearing the lingerie and shoes intended for the event.

Tailor-made for your exceptional events
For a wedding dress or a ceremonial caftan, we recommend custom-made:
-
Perfect fit to your measurements
-
Comfort and elegance guaranteed
-
A unique piece that reflects your personality
Our practical advice
-
Take your measurements on thin clothing.
-
Stay straight but natural, without sucking in your stomach.
-
If you are between two sizes, choose the larger one (easier to adjust).
-
For a long dress, always measure with your intended shoes.
