Which size for which age

Indian kidswear sizes are numbers, not letters, and the number is roughly the chest measurement in inches. Size 24 fits a typical five year old. If your child is between two sizes, or on the taller side, take the larger one — ethnic wear is worn a few times a year and a little room is better than none.

Some of our pieces are labelled by age instead — 6-9 M, 4-5 Y. Those need no translation: order the age you would expect.

Chest and length are garment measurements in inches, taken flat and doubled. Lengths vary a little by style — each product page lists its own.
