Starline Lingerie Sizing Guide
In our collections we often use stretch fabrics and some designs include adjustable ribbons or string bows. For example, the Wavy String Knickers or the Kitten Back Tie which can fit from sizes 6 to 12.
With respect to bra sizing, we don’t make underwire bras so all of our bralettes are in a tie neck and strap design - which can fit most sizes, the only difference being that the bigger you are the less it will cover you!!!
We make most of our items for mainstream sizes though many items have the flexibility for adjustment. Note that we also provide a bespoke service for larger sizes.
