How do I find my size at Universal Standard?

We recommend measuring yourself for the best fit. Measure around your bust at the fullest point, your waist at the narrowest part, and your hips at the fullest part. Compare your measurements to our size chart to find your perfect fit. Our sizes range from 00-40 (4XS to 4XL). If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up. Visit our Find My Size page at universalstandard.com/pages/find-my-size for detailed guidance.

What is Universal Sizing?

We thought conventional sizing seemed skewed, so we shifted the spotlight to reflect the real bell curve. If the average woman wears a size 18, then that should be called a Medium, right? Our sample size is an 18, and we engineer every single size from there to ensure the perfect fit for all of US. Our sizes range from 00-40 (4XS to 4XL in Universal Standard sizing).

Reviews

The model photos show this

"The model photos show this shirt looking good tucked in, which is what I wanted so I could wear it in a business casual outfit. But on my hourglass figure it just looked bunched and odd tucked in. Size 2XS but my largest proportion is my bust, I’ll have to get it tailored to wear tucked in, which is frustrating for the price. Also found the fabric prickly and itchy and uncomfortable, which I wasn’t expecting. I haven’t bought linen before, though, maybe all linen is like that. I did wash before wearing."

Perfect beachy shirt

"Great fit and the linen fabric is light and airy. The stripe pattern is so beachy - and I live beachy! The style of this shirt is very near perfect and I own it in other colors."

Love this shirt!

"I’m really happy they’re offering this shirt in linen because I’m not a big fan of the usual fabric. In linen, I would buy this shirt in every colour if I could afford it! I love the understated stripe. This is exactly what I come here for because it’s hard to find good quality versatile pieces in good fabrics in my size (26) and up in the UK, where I live."

Love the Color and Fit!

"I ordered this in XL and it fits. I think if I ordered it again in another color, I would get it in a 2 for a more oversized fit."
