Thoughts on Fit
We believe clothes should be made to fit your body. Not the other way around. Let's find your fit!
Notes on our sizing: In April 2022, we implemented a new Fit Guide! This included both tweaks to our existing sizes, and an expanded size range of 3XL. If you've purchased from us in the past, please review the updated Guide above as some things have changed! Questions? Get in touch at studio@naominomi.com

Don’t know your measurements? We got you. Here’s our step-by-step guide:
What you’ll need: A tape measure, or if you don’t have one, some string or gift ribbon and a ruler will do. Paper and pen. Or your phone. Or anything where you can write it all down. Full length mirror, or at least a pretty big one. To be wearing only bra and undies, or incredibly form fitting clothes like spandex, or, ideally, nude.
Step 1: Start with your Bust. Wrap the tape measure around the widest part of your chest. As best you can, keep the tape measure parallel to the ground, so that it’s not drifting up or down anywhere. Use the mirror to keep an eye on your back; this is where tape measures tends to slip down most. Pull snug but not tight. Look at the measurement and write it down.
Step 2: Move on to your waist. The true waist is the narrowest part of your midsection, usually about 1-2 inches above the bellybutton, but just focus on the part that’s thinnest. Now repeat the process. Wrap the tape measure. Keep it level. Pull snug but not tight. Write down the measurement.
Step 3: Finish with the low hip. This is the widest part of your hips/butt area. It’s typically a little below your butt muscles, or about 7-8 inches below the top of the pelves. What your old-school aunt might call the “saddlebag” area. Measure that. You know the drill.
Step 4: Use your recorded measurements to find the ideal NAOMI NOMI fit.
Hold up, I got my garment, it fits great, but there is no size label in it!
Indulge us for a moment because we’re about to get a little philosophical. We don’t put traditional size labels in our clothing because in our hearts and minds, we really don’t like organizing clothes, or people for that matter, into “size” buckets at all. People and garments are so much more accurately described as shapes. That said, we are garment sellers who serve a lot of people. We’re not tailors, so we can’t think of our clothes or all of our clients completely through the lens of personalized measurements (yet!). So, instead of traditional XS-XXL size labels, every NAOMI NOMI garment has a way-more-stunning-than-it-needs-to-be, color coded grosgrain ribbon that does indeed indicate the size bucket, but doesn’t announce it to the world. Because “sizes” are reductive and inconsistent from brand to brand and not that useful and this is just a beautiful piece of ribbon. Is it a bit much? Maybe to someone else, but being a bit much is not something we’ve ever been scared of.
Still unsure about fit?
Remember, if your garment arrives and it’s not fitting right, we’ll work with you until you're happy. If a garment doesn’t fit your body, we consider it our job to change out the garment, not your job to change your body. For all fit questions, you can always reach out to studio@naominomi.com.
