Flannel Nightshirt Sizing
Sizing (after shrinking)
Determining what size will fit is harder to do when shopping on-line than in person. To make it easier please see the charts below.
Please know that measurements can vary from garment to garment. This happens for a variety of reasons such as different sewers, different shrinkage etc.
Instead of measuring yourself, it is easier to compare these measurements to a gown you find comfy. Lay your gown flat . The flat measurements of openings and circumferences will be one half ( because you are measuring flat, not round) the values shown in our chart. The arm opening is measured along the curve of the seam. The neck is measured around the neck opening. The bicep opening is measured 5 cm (2") from the under arm seam.
