Sizing
Size range
XS - 4X BEATON's sizing is relaxed, slightly oversized, but true to the size guide. Our patterns are drafted for an average height of 170cm (5'7"). To ensure your best fit, take your body measurements carefully and compare to our sizing chart. The bust is the most important measurement for the River Dress. The instruction booklet also contains the flat measurements of the House Dress & Shirt, in case you would like to compare to a beloved, well-fitting garment that is made of a similar fabric to the River Dress that you intend to make.
