Aururio Size Guide

Find your best evening dress size by measuring first, checking each product page, and allowing for the way formalwear behaves in movement.

1

Measure first

Use a soft measuring tape, not your usual casualwear size.

2

Check the product page

Each style may have its own Product Measurements table.

3

Plan the length

Floor-length gowns may need heel-height or hem adjustments.

Before You Choose Your Size

Evening dress sizing is not the same as everyday clothing. Start with your body measurements, then compare them with the product measurements on the specific dress page.

How to Measure

Use a soft measuring tape and keep it close to the body without pulling tight.

Bust

Measure around the fullest part of your bust while keeping the tape level.

Waist

Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waist.

Hips

Measure around the fullest part of your hips, usually 7–9 inches below the waist.

Hollow to Hem

Measure from the hollow at the base of your neck to where you want the dress hem to fall.

How to Read Product Measurements

The most helpful chart is often the one on the product page itself. Use it to compare Size, Bust, Waist, Hips, and Length for the dress you are viewing.

Do not rely only on the size label

A size M in one dress can measure differently from another style.

Compare your body to the chart

If one area is larger, choose the size that protects the fit first.

Length is style-specific

Check Length or Hollow to Hem before deciding on heels or alterations.

If You Are Between Sizes

01

Choose the larger size when

Your bust, waist, or hips sits close to the upper edge of the measurement range.

02

Choose based on the fitted area

For mermaid, sheath, and satin styles where tension is easier to see.

03

Tailoring is usually cleaner

Taking in a dress slightly is often cleaner than forcing a size that is too small.

Dress Length Note

Many evening dresses are designed as floor-length styles. Your final look depends on your height, heel height, and whether the dress is intended to skim the floor or float slightly above it.

Measure with similar heels

A two-inch difference can change how formal the hem looks. If you plan to wear heels, measure with a similar heel height in mind.

Fit Notes by Style

Satin

Smooth satin shows tension easily. Prioritize clean waist and hip measurements.

Sequin

Sequins add structure. Avoid overly tight sizing around the bust and hips.

Mermaid

The hip and thigh area matters most because the silhouette is narrow.

A-line

The waist and bodice are usually more important than hip width.

Measurement Tolerance

A small measurement difference can happen because formal dresses are sewn, steamed, and measured by hand. Use the chart as a practical guide, not a mathematical cage.

Size FAQ

Should I size up? Usually, yes, if your measurement sits between two sizes. Can I use my usual US dress size? Only as a starting point. Product measurements should decide.
