5 Steps to Buying the Perfect Dress Size Online Every Time!
Shopping for clothes online can be daunting, but we’re here to give you a few tips and tricks to make that process easier.
1. Get Your Measurements Taken by a Professional
The hardest part about shopping online is making sure the clothes you order are a good fit for you. This is why the very first step to ensuring a successful online clothing purchase is to make sure you have correct measurements.
Now sure, you can grab a measuring tape, follow instructions off the internet and get your own measurements. But given that Pakistan has a large wealth of tailors available at every corner, you would be better off having a professional measure you.
2. Never Follow Size Tags
Size tags like medium, extra large, or extra small can be very misleading – especially when every retailer has their own sizing chart. Instead of blindly choosing the size you usually wear, make sure to study every seller’s size chart before making a purchase.
Sometimes, certain international sellers can have sizes that go up to 5XL based on their market but the clothes are actually sized at a regular Pakistani XL or 2XL. So be sure to check exact measurements before making a purchase!
3. Know What Cut You’re Purchasing
When shopping for clothes online, size isn’t the only thing that matters when making a decision. The cut of your clothes is also an important factor. Whether it’s a Pakistani traditional kameez or a western blouse, dress, or skirt – the cut
4. When in Doubt, Order a Size Up!
Not sure whether you should get a size M or a size L? If you’re unsure of which would fit you better, it’s always safer to go a size up. Clothes that fit you loosely can always be altered by your tailored to fit you better but if you end up buying a size too small, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to alter it to fit the way you’d like.
5. Check Reviews and Ratings
