A braided knit maxi in black, where the cables read purely as shadow and the texture shows only in movement. Cable braiding runs the full length, so the dress has the weight and texture of a heavy knit rather than the drape of a jersey — it holds a shape rather than following one. The off-shoulder neckline keeps that mass from reading as bulk by opening everything above the bust. Floor length. This is a winter dress: it works over boots and under a coat, and it is warm enough to be the only layer.

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.
