Chest is the tee measured all the way round. For a relaxed fit, pick one a few inches bigger than your own chest.

Size Guide — Relaxed Unisex Fit

This tee is printed on the Bella+Canvas 3001, a relaxed unisex fit.

How to measure: lay a tee you already love flat. Measure straight across the chest, just below the armpits, then from the highest point of the shoulder down to the hem. Compare those numbers with the table.

Size Width across chest Length
S 18″ / 46 cm 28″ / 71 cm
M 20″ / 51 cm 29″ / 74 cm
L 22″ / 56 cm 30″ / 76 cm
XL 24″ / 61 cm 31″ / 79 cm
2XL 26″ / 66 cm 32″ / 81 cm
3XL 28″ / 71 cm 33″ / 84 cm

Measurements are of the garment laid flat. Allow up to 1½″ (4 cm) either way.

Between sizes?

Stay true to size for a regular fit, or size up for a looser, slouchier look. Still not sure? Message us before you order and we’ll talk you through it.

The invitation said casual. She saw room for interpretation.

A little black dress on a mannequin sets the tone for a woman who makes an entrance, even when everyone else just turns up. Elegant lettering delivers the verdict: “I came. I saw. I overdressed.”

Pair it with jeans for everyday drama, slip it under a blazer for drinks, or gift it to the friend who treats every booking like a red-carpet invitation.
