Fit & Ease - what is ease?
Ease is the measurement of a garment that is greater than your physical chest size. When designing, ease is worked into each design; generally the greater the ease, the more casual the fit. The fit of a garment is a combination of body ease and really importantly, the fit over the shoulder. The majority of Jane's designs have a fitted shoulder; unlike the chest size, the shoulder fit has very little difference between sizes, chest size may increase by 2"/5cm between sizes, but the shoulder will increase by less then ½"/1cm.
The classic example of this is swingcoats - the fitted shoulder supports the excess ease in this style. |
Fit is a personal preference, and also different per design.  Left the garment is worn fitted, this is just 1½"/4cm larger than the model's chest size.
Most garments are designs with 'ease'. This can be from 2"/5cm to 6"/15cm greater than your chest size.
Example Chest of 38"/96cm
Windsor Jacket (right) with 2"/5cm ease = 40"/101cm, this is designed to be fitted.
Blocks Cardigan is a casual style with 6"/15cm = 44"/111cm.
Stock garments are identified each with a stock number & design name: Blocks HE22 colour and size 12 - 16, as well as measurements of that garment for chest, hip and length. Compare these to a knit in your wardrobe to gauge your size and ease. Happy to chat about size and colours. |
