Sizing

Scroop patterns use a true sizing system, where a 36” bust wears a size 36 – no arbitrary sizing numbers.

The patterns are designed using a size 38 body model who is 168cm/5’6” tall, with a B cup and hourglass figure, and re-checked for fit on a size 46 body model. They are then tested on a wide range of bodies, to check for fit, flattery, and the types of adjustments that sewists are likely to make depending on their figure.

While the patterns are designed with a specific body type as their base, that doesn't mean that's the only body type they will look good on or fit.  The patterns with fitted bodices come with multiple cup sizes.  You can draw between sizes to create a custom fit on most patterns.  Most importantly, what flatters and looks good on you is up to you: if you love it, that's the most flattering look of all.  

Each Scroop pattern has been tested by at least 30 bodies, in every possible size, and in a wide range of figure types, before it is available for sale, to ensure the fit is as accurate as possible.

The full Scroop size range is from size 30 to size 56. Some patterns come in the full size range, other patterns come in a more limited (size 30 to size 52, or size 32 to 54) range.
