Size Guide
Tangabula pieces are offered in alpha or one size depending on the style. Our boubous and other relaxed pieces are generously cut to fit a range of sizes. Check each product page for the recommended fit range and garment measurement
Slight variations in weave, texture, and print placement are natural to many of our fabrics and may vary from piece to peice.
How to Measure
Use a soft measuring tape and keep it comfortably against your body without pulling tight. It helps to measure over light clothing, or none at all.

Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level across your back.

Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waistline, usually just above the navel.

Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat, with your feet together.
For tailored separates, you may also want your shoulder width and preferred garment length. Each product page lists the measurements of that specific piece, so you can compare before ordering.

One Size Pieces
Our boubous, kaftans, and other relaxed pieces are generously cut and designed to fit a range of sizes. Check each product page for the recommended fit range and garment measurments
For these pieces, length and width can be more useful than a standard size.
How Our Pieces Are Meant to Fit
Tangabula silhouettes are designed with intention, and different styles wear differently.
Relaxed styles
Boubous, kaftans, and kimonos are generously cut by design.
Structured styles
Matching sets and tailored separates follow the size chart more closely. If between sizes, we generally recommend sizing up.
A Note on Fabric
Some of our fabrics, including Aso Oke and brocade, are naturally more structured and have little stretch. Our boubous, kaftans and kimonos are however generously cut to for an easy fit
