► No one is like you – and that's a good thing.
If you've never ordered from Ana Alcazar before, it's worth ordering selection sizes with your first order. Try on the sizes at home in peace and quiet. Simply return any unsuitable items. If you have decided on a size, you can use it for future orders.
► A feminine cut for power women
Ana Alcazar models are usually cut close to the figure, if you generally prefer to wear clothes longer and looser, then order one size larger. In the description of each product, you will find exact information about the cut – that's where you can find out whether it is a figure-hugging, casual or oversized cut.
We'll show you the looks on the model. We'll show you the outfit from different perspectives. This will give you a good idea of the fit and length of the item. You can also find the model's size in the article description for guidance.
► Our measurement table will help you to get oriented
Measure and compare! You know yourself best: measure the 4 points: shoulder-breast-waist-hips, and compare them with our standard chart. This will give you a little more confidence in choosing your size. You can find the current measurement table further down on this page.
