FAQ Answers for Your Size Guide Page
1. How do I measure bust for Indian clothing?
To measure your bust, wrap a measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest while keeping the tape level across your back. The tape should be snug but not tight. This measurement helps determine the correct size for salwar kameez, lehenga choli blouses, saree blouses, and other Indian dresses. For the best fit, measure while wearing light clothing or a fitted undergarment.
2. What if I am between two sizes?
If your measurements fall between two sizes, it is usually best to choose the larger size for comfort and easier alterations. Indian clothing such as lehenga cholis, salwar kameez, and saree blouses can often be adjusted slightly by tailoring. If you are unsure, you can submit your exact measurements using the custom measurement form so our team can recommend the best fit.
3. Do you offer plus-size Indian clothing?
Yes. AMZI Collections USA offers plus-size Indian clothing, including salwar kameez, lehengas, sarees, and bridal outfits in extended sizes. Our size chart includes sizes up to 3XL, and we also accept custom measurements for customers who need a personalized fit.
