Sizing guide
Finding the right size online can feel uncertain, especially with relaxed silhouettes and natural fabrics. Josephine is designed to feel easy, comfortable and beautifully draped on the body. Many styles include intentional ease rather than a close fit. To make sizing simpler, refer to the measurement guide further down the page.
HOW JOSEPHINE FITS
Many Josephine pieces are designed with ease through the body rather than a close, tailored fit. This creates the relaxed, effortless silhouette the brand is known for.
Depending on the style, garments are sized as:
Runs Small
Designed to sit closer to the body while still allowing comfortable movement.
True To Size
Designed with comfortable room through the body and sleeves.
Oversized Fit
Intentionally cut with extra volume to create a looser silhouette.
If you prefer a neater fit, you may prefer the smaller of your usual sizes. If you enjoy a more relaxed/oversized silhouette, your usual size will typically provide the intended look.
WINTER 08’26 SIZING GUIDE
We’ve made a considered update to our sizing for a more balanced fit across the collection.
Styles previously labelled XS/S now align with M.
If you previously wore XS/S and loved the relaxed fit, choose M for a similar feel.
For a neater, less oversized fit, choose the smaller size where available.
For more details, refer to each product page for fit notes, measurements, and model guidance.

**This measurement guide may vary based on where the garment sits on the body – whether higher on the waist or lower on the hip. Please consider this as a general measurement guide**
Choosing Between Sizes
If you are between sizes, these tips may help:
Choose the smaller size if:
• you prefer a neater fit
• the garment is designed oversized
• the fabric has natural stretch
Choose the larger size if:
• you prefer a relaxed silhouette
• you are between measurements
• you plan to layer garments
