Frequently asked questions about measuring

Can I order the gown without taking measurements?

Yes. Our standard gowns are available in sizes XS to XXL. Simply choose the size based on your height from the size chart.

When do I need individual measurements?

For premium gowns and made-to-measure robes (e.g. doctoral or professorial gowns) we tailor to your exact measurements. In that case, please submit your individual measurements using the form above.

What should I do for in-between sizes?

Always choose the next size up. A slightly roomier gown looks more elegant than one that is too tight.

How precise do the measurements need to be?

An accuracy of ±1 cm is perfectly sufficient. Important: do not measure over thick clothing and stand up straight.
