Size chart
Six sizes graded at 5 cm: S chest 91, M 96, L 101, XL 106 — published as body measurements with a note that the garment adds 8 cm of ease.
How the Clothing Measurement Chart Builder works
- Measure the base size accurately and record whether these are body or finished-garment measurements.
- Choose a grading step; 5 cm between sizes is common for adult ready-to-wear.
- Publish both the body measurement and the ease, so a customer can tell whether a garment is fitted or relaxed.
The method
A size chart grades a base size up and down by a fixed increment, and the garment's finished measurement adds ease on top of the body measurement.
garment measurement = body measurement + ease allowance
A 96 cm chest with 8 cm of ease gives a 104 cm finished garment — which is why publishing only one of the two numbers guarantees returns.
FAQ
Should I publish body or garment measurements?
Both, clearly labelled. Customers measure themselves and also measure a garment they already own, and a chart that supports only one method causes returns.
What is ease?
The difference between the body and the garment. Close-fitting shirts carry a few centimetres, relaxed outerwear far more. It is the single biggest reason two garments of the same size fit differently.
How much should sizes step?
Four to six centimetres for adult clothing. Smaller steps mean more inventory; larger steps mean more people fall between sizes.

Clothing Measurement Chart Builder publishes ease alongside the measurements, which is the number that decides whether a size chart actually prevents returns.
