Jersey Babydoll Dress Garment Measurements
The Kablooie Jersey Babydoll dress is sewn in a soft comfortable jersey fabric. It is a relaxed fit dress with short sleeves, round neckline, pockets and a raised gathered waistline. The dimensions of the jersey babydoll dress are smaller than the cotton dress, as the garment has a lovely stretch. However the sizes are intended to be equivalent - ie if you are a size 12 in the cotton dress, you should fit the size 12 in the babydoll dress. If you prefer a slimmer fit, as the dress is stretch fabric, you can size down. If you like a normal relaxed fit, just stick with your normal size. Please note all dimensions below are approximate and taken from sample garments sewn up to test my sewing patterns.

They include slant front pockets and, as with all other garments, you can request up to 5cm to be taken off or added to the length of your pants to adjust for your height and build. The pants are high waisted, sitting a few cm above the belly button. Please note that the waistband measurement is a full circumference, but all other width measurements are taken across the front of the garment laid flat (ie need to be doubled to get full garment circumference).

Children's clothing are not listed on the website as part of my regular range from 2019 onwards, as I now focus all my craziness on developing my adult range. However, I am always able to make you some of my kids gear (especially to match your adult clothes) as a custom request, either via my Facebook group or over email.
Children's sizes are based on the Australian Standard sizing for children. Waist and length measurements are shown below for your reference. All skirts are designed to come to the knee or just below, depending on the child's height. All kids shorts come to the knee or just above. All kids clothing is elastic waisted, and size should generally match age. If your child is tall/large for their age, then I suggest you size up.

The Kablooie Shift Dress is not currently listed online, but I can create one as a custom order at your request. It is a sleeveless style A line shift dress, with a dart at the bust area, but is designed to be relaxed fit still around the hips and waist. As this dress is a smaller fit due to the more tailored style, I don't recommend you size down if you're between sizes.

Some Super Important Sizing Information
The sizing is simple - My seamstresses and I have sewn up a full set of garments in every size and in every style in my range. Then we laid each of the samples flat and measured them across the front. So sizing charts are telling you the dimensions of each sample garment across the front (except for sleeve circumference measurements which are the full measurement round the sleeve opening.)
Each time you order, we make your garment from scratch in the same way, so your garment should have the same measurements, give or take half a centimetre sometimes.
Kablooie pieces are handmade to order, and are meant to be a relaxed casual fit. They are not intended to be tailored or fitted, and give you plenty of space to move, laugh, eat and enjoy life!
My cotton collections are made with a non stretch 100% cotton. My Breastfeeding range and the stretch jersey collection are both made from a soft organic cotton lycra (95% cotton, 5% lycra) with a gentle stretch and beautiful fall. It's a solid tee shirt thickness and feels really fabulous on - not slinky or too thin. The jersey garments are cut slightly smaller than the cotton, because they stretch and give easily around your body - generally you'll fit the equivalent size in jersey as you do in cotton, or could easily go down a size as they are also relaxed fit. Â
If you are between sizes, you should go with the smaller size (eg if you're 14-16, go the 14). If you prefer a slimmer fit, size down from your normal size (but please remember the tops and dresses have no fastenings or zips and still need to be pulled on over the head and shoulders, so they can’t have as slim a fit as a garment with a full body zip or buttons at the neckline).
The best place to start is to check your bust measurement for a dress or top, and your waist measurement for a skirt. For Example: get the bust measurement of the top or dress, double it to get the full circumference, then compare to your bust measurements. The dress bust might be 112cm, and your bust might be 108cm. If the piece is in non stretch cotton, this means it should fit you with ease.
You can also compare the garment measurements with a similar garment already in your wardrobe - beware though, it needs to be the same sort of fabric (ie comparing stretch with non stretch is a big no-no) and they need to have the same basic construction and style - you can't compare a dress with a long back zip and a dress that is pull over your head style.
Having trouble figuring out your size? Watch the video below that I've made to help walk you through it.
Buying online can be tricky! My pieces are made to order and customisable, and I want you to love them - so I am happy to post out some garment samples for you to try on and return to work out your fit. This is someting that I have recently started doing - eg if you want to purchase a size 14 dress, I can send you that size plus the sizes either side to try on. I can also have a 15 minute zoom call fitting with you when you receive them. All I need you to do is pay for postage back, and get them back in the post within 48 hours to me. Want to try it? Please contact me - I'd love to help!
At the moment, my detailed sizing charts show the actual garment measurements, rather than body measurements. The easiest way to work out sizing is to measure a garment you already have, no matter which country it was made in (which is made from a similar material and in a similar style- ie cotton non stretch or stretchy fabric).
But if you don't have anything similar, as a general rule, UK sizing is similar to Australian, and you should go down an average of 2 sizes to find your US size. Please see this article on the Finder website for a helpful conversion chart. Please keep in mind that my sizes are a little more generous than the average Australian chain store size.
To see more detail on the different dress, skirt and sleeve lengths available, or how to customise your garment by lenghtening the bodice, scooping the neckline, or changing the length to suit your height, head to 'Customise Your Kablooie' .
I have recorded a series of short videos on my IGTV channel to show you each of my garments, how they feel and look on, from all angles. It's a really helpful way to see a real garment on a real person, which gives you more information than a flat photograph would. Head to my Kablooie Store IGTV channel to see more - I hope you find them helpful! I also have inserted short videos below for each garment so you can see them on me.
