CHILDREN'S CLOTHES SIZE CHART

Sophias Style Size Chart

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR CHILD FOR CLOTHES?

A. Chest Width: child's arms down, slip tape under arms and across chest and shoulder blades holding tape firm and level.

B. Waist Measure: measure around the natural waistline.

C. Hem Length: To see where the hem will fall on your child, measure down from the middle top of shoulder or waist line (as specified within the description).

D. Hips/Seat: With child standing, measure around fullest point of the seat.

E. Inseam: Measure pants that fit child well. Lay them flat with the front and back creased smooth. Measure along the inseam from crotch to bottom of leg hem. F. Torso Start by the neck at highest point of the shoulder, then measure down over chest through the crotch and continue up the back to the starting point.

The garment measurement in the description should be about 1 inch larger than the actual measurement of your child.

Please use the following general girls size charts to help determine sizing, however, keep in mind that due to variations between children, brands and styles, we cannot guarantee fit. We have found that height is a better indicator of size than weight.

If in doubt you may wish to order up a size, as children will always grow!

The below size charts are intended for reference only. Sizes can vary between brands. Sophia's Style cannot suggest or guarantee sizing for ANY item
