Size Guide
Please refer to this size guide carefully before placing your order. Since Azra offers Indian, western, indo-western, designer, occasion wear, and men’s wear, sizing may vary depending on silhouette, fabric, cut, embroidery, lining, and designer-specific patterns.
Important: All customers are requested to check the size guide, product description, and fit notes before confirming their order. Returns, exchanges, or refunds due to incorrect size selection, fit preference, body type variation, or failure to check measurements may not be accepted, subject to Azra’s Return & Refund Policy.
Before You Choose a Size
The size charts below are general reference charts. For some designer pieces, the fit may differ due to fabric, padding, lining, embroidery, stretch, closure, drape, or construction.
If a product page mentions a specific designer size chart or fit note, that product-specific information should be treated as more relevant than the general chart below.

Category-Wise Fit Guide
| Category | Most Important Measurements | Fit Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Lehenga Sets | Bust, waist, hip, blouse length, lehenga/skirt length | Check both blouse and bottom measurements. Heavy lehengas may have limited stretch or alteration margin. |
| Blouses, Corsets & Crop Tops | Bust, underbust, shoulder, armhole, sleeve length | Structured, padded, corset, or non-stretch pieces require closer measurement checking. |
| Sarees & Pre-Draped Sarees | Blouse bust, blouse waist, shoulder, petticoat/skirt waist, height | For pre-draped sarees, waist and height are important as the drape may be pre-stitched. |
| Kurtas, Anarkalis & Kalidars | Bust, waist, hip, shoulder, sleeve length, outfit length | Flared silhouettes may be flexible at the hip but fitted at bust, shoulder, and sleeves. |
| Sharara, Gharara, Pants & Skirts | Waist, hip, bottom length | Check whether the waistband is fixed, elasticated, or has a side zip/closure. |
| Western Dresses & Gowns | Bust, waist, hip, shoulder, outfit length | Bodycon, mermaid, corset, and structured gowns need more precise sizing than relaxed styles. |
| Co-Ord Sets | Top: bust/shoulder. Bottom: waist/hip/length. | Choose size based on the stricter-fitting piece. Top and bottom fit may differ depending on body shape. |
| Capes, Jackets & Overlays | Shoulder, bust/chest, sleeve length, length | Outer layers may feel more relaxed, but shoulder and sleeve measurements should still be checked. |
| Men’s Kurtas & Sherwanis | Chest, waist, shoulder, sleeve length, kurta/sherwani length | Structured sherwanis and bandhgalas usually need a more accurate chest and shoulder fit. |
| Men’s Trousers & Bottoms | Waist, hip/seat, thigh, trouser length | Check whether the trouser has elastic, drawstring, belt loops, or fixed waistband closure. |
How to Measure
Use a soft measuring tape. Keep the tape comfortably close to the body, not too tight and not too loose. For best results, measure over fitted clothing.
Bust / Chest
Measure around the fullest part of the bust or chest, keeping the tape level across the back.
Underbust
Measure directly under the bust. This is important for corsets, blouses, bralettes, and structured tops.
Waist
Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso.
Hip / Seat
Measure around the fullest part of the hips or seat, keeping the tape straight and level.
Shoulder
Measure from one shoulder edge to the other across the back.
Armhole
Measure around the shoulder and underarm area. This matters for fitted blouses, jackets, and structured tops.
Sleeve Length
Measure from the shoulder point to the desired sleeve end, such as elbow, wrist, or full sleeve length.
Outfit Length
Measure from the shoulder down to the desired hemline for dresses, gowns, kurtas, anarkalis, and sherwanis.
Bottom Length
Measure from the waist to the desired bottom hemline for trousers, skirts, lehengas, shararas, and pants.
Neck
For men’s shirts, bandhgalas, and sherwanis, measure around the base of the neck with slight comfort space.
Fit Guidance
- If you are between two sizes, we generally recommend choosing the larger size for comfort and alteration flexibility.
- For fitted, padded, corset, bodycon, mermaid, heavily embroidered, or non-stretch pieces, please check measurements more carefully.
- For relaxed silhouettes such as kaftans, capes, overlays, and flowy anarkalis, the fit may be more flexible.
- For co-ord sets, choose the size based on the piece that is less flexible or more fitted.
- For lehengas, skirts, trousers, and shararas, waist and hip measurements are very important.
- For blouses, corsets, crop tops, and jackets, bust/chest, shoulder, armhole, and sleeve measurements are very important.
- Product images are for styling and visual reference. The actual fit may vary depending on height, body shape, fabric, lining, and garment construction.
Alteration & Margin
Some garments may have alteration margin, while others may not due to embroidery, lining, structure, fabric, or designer finishing. Availability of margin is not guaranteed unless specifically mentioned on the product page or confirmed by Azra before purchase.
