A ruched mini in black, where the gathering reads as shadow alone and the shape does the talking. Ruching gathers through the body and shapes with fabric rather than construction — no boning, no panels, just cloth pulled where it needs to hold. Cut short, so the gathering runs the full length of the dress and there is nowhere for it to relax. It grips without feeling slippery and stays comfortable across an evening. For parties, dinners and nights out rather than formal receptions.

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.
