#29: Why I Never Look at Sizing Labels

Gulinka Season 2 Episode 29

In this episode, I share my personal journey of how sizing held me back from discovering my authentic style, and why focusing on fit rather than size numbers transformed my approach to fashion. 

I break down the inconsistency of Australian sizing across different retailers and provide practical tips for finding the perfect fit, including:

  • How to check shoulder seams, movement, and comfort in tops and jackets
  • Essential fit tests for trousers and skirts, including the sit test and waistband check
  • Key indicators for well-fitted dresses, from waistline placement to even hemlines
  • The importance of trying multiple sizes and using a tailor for investment pieces

My key message is simple: let go of the sizing labels and focus on how clothes make you feel. When you break free from the limitations of sizing, you open yourself up to exploring your personal style with confidence and joy.
