All measurements are body measurements, not garment measurements.
How to Measure
Use a soft tape measure and wear your everyday undergarments. Keep the tape snug but not tight.
Bust
Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
Waist
Measure around the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above the belly button.
Hips
Stand with feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat.
Between sizes? We recommend sizing up for the most comfortable fit.
Fit Guide
01
Fitted
Closely follows your body's curves. The fabric skims and flatters without restricting movement.
Best for: defined waist, flattering silhouette
02
Relaxed
A little extra room through the body for a comfortable, effortless feel — never shapeless, always intentional.
Best for: all-day comfort, easy layering
03
Oversized
Intentionally roomy for a laid-back, contemporary look. Consider sizing down if you prefer a less dramatic drape.
Best for: casual wear, statement styling
Care Guide
Taking care of your DWEL pieces keeps them looking and feeling beautiful for longer. Follow these guidelines to get the most out of every dress.
Machine Wash Cold
Wash on a gentle cycle in cold water (30°C / 86°F). Turn the garment inside out to protect the fabric and colour.
No Bleach
Avoid bleach and harsh chemical treatments. They weaken the fabric and cause colours to fade unevenly.
Air Dry Preferred
Lay flat or hang to dry in the shade. If using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting to avoid shrinkage.
Iron on Low Heat
Iron inside out on a low setting. For delicate fabrics, use a pressing cloth between the iron and the garment.
Store Folded or Hung
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For structured pieces, hanging is best. Fold knitwear to retain shape.
