Finished garment measurements:
Sizes XS - (S - M - L - XL - 2XL - 3XL - 4XL) are suited for a 80/85 (85/90 - 90/95 - 95/105 - 105/115 - 115/130 - 130/140 - 140/150) cm 31.5/33.4 (33.4/35.4 - 35.4/37.4 - 37.4/41.3 - 41.3/45.2 - 45.2/51.1 - 51.1/55.1 - 55.1/59) inches bust circumference. To choose your size, make sure to measure your bust size, and choose the version depending on the fitting you prefer: tight or loose (for a tight fit, you can choose a size with a negative ease, and a smaller circumference than your actual bust size).
There are three length options for this pattern: the shorter version (cropped) stops more or less above the waist, perfect to wear with a high waist skirt or with a little top underneath, and the medium version stops around the hips and will look great at the beach with a pair of shorts or jeans. The long version stops under the hips, for a more traditional fit. To choose the length that suits you best, take the measurement starting at the neck and shoulder juncture, and going down.
