A draped satin maxi in black, where light travels the folds and the dress reads as pure line. Satin drapes better than almost anything because it has weight without stiffness — the folds fall in long unbroken lines rather than breaking into small creases, and light travels the whole length of each one. There is no embellishment; the fabric is the entire proposition. Floor length. Satin creases where it folds; hang it rather than packing it.

Some styles are offered in additional sizes — the size selector on each product page shows exactly what's available.

Our cut runs relaxed — if you're between sizes, take the smaller one

Most of our pieces are cut easy-fit rather than close-fitting, so the usual advice to size up doesn't apply here. If your measurements fall between two sizes, take the smaller one.

Swimwear is the exception — it's cut closer to the body, so for swimwear only, take the larger size.

These are general body measurement ranges used across the fashion industry, not measurements taken from our garments. Use them as a starting point.

Shoes

Shoe sizing varies by style. Most of our shoes show a US and EU pair — for example US 8 / EU 40. Some styles show a single number instead. If you're between sizes or unsure which system a style uses, email contact@thealif.com before ordering and we'll confirm.

How to measure

Bust — around the fullest part, tape level, arms relaxed.
Waist — the narrowest part, usually just above the navel.
Hips — the fullest part, roughly 20cm (8") below the waist.

Keep the tape snug but not tight, and measure over underwear rather than clothing.

If you're unsure

Fit varies between styles, fabrics and cuts. If you're uncertain about a piece, email contact@thealif.com with your measurements and the item you're considering, and we'll advise before you order.
