Size Guide – Ariva Ethnics

Finding the perfect fit is important to us. Please refer to our size chart below to choose the correct size for your body type.

Important Note: Our sizes (38, 40, 42, 44) refer to the Ready Garment Measurement of the chest/bust area in inches.

Size Chart (Inches)

Size Label Size Number Chest / Bust Waist Hip
M 38 38" 34" 40"
L 40 40" 36" 42"
XL 42 42" 38" 44"
XXL 44 44" 40" 46"

How to Choose Your Size

Since these are Garment Measurements, we recommend buying a size that is 2 inches larger than your actual body measurement for a comfortable fit.

  • Step 1: Measure your chest/bust.

  • Step 2: If your chest measures 36 inches, you should buy Size 38 (M).

  • Step 3: If your chest measures 38 inches, you should buy Size 40 (L) for a comfortable fit, or Size 38 (M) if you prefer a very tight fit.


How to Measure Yourself

  • Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest. Keep the tape loose enough to slide a finger behind it.

  • Waist: Measure around the slimmest part of your waist (usually just above your navel).

  • Hips: Measure around the widest part of your hips.


Fit & Fabric Disclaimer

  • Cotton Fabrics: Pure cotton outfits may shrink slightly (approx. 0.5 inches) after the first wash. If you are in between sizes, we recommend going for the larger size.

  • Color Variation: We try our best to display accurate colors, but actual product colors may vary slightly due to mobile screen brightness and photographic lighting.

  • Handcrafted Details: Minor variations in prints or embroidery are a sign of authentic handcrafted ethnic wear and are not defects.
