SHOPPING GUIDE
Every Birdlap design has its own shape and fall. Some styles are structured and straight, while others are relaxed, flared, or draped. The way a garment sits depends on its silhouette, fabric, and cut.
Understanding Form, Fit & Style
Every Birdlap design has its own unique shape and movement. Understanding silhouette helps you choose styles that align with your comfort, aesthetic, and lifestyle.
Straight Fit: A clean, vertical silhouette that sits close to the body with a polished and minimal appearance.
A-Line Fit: Gradually widens towards the hem, offering ease around the waist and hips.
Relaxed Fit: Designed for comfort and movement with a slightly looser shape throughout.
Flared / Flowing Fit: Adds volume and graceful movement, creating a soft and elegant drape.
Draped Style: Created through gathers, folds, or fluid construction for a naturally flowing silhouette.
Bottom Styles: Pants, skirts, and draped bottoms follow similar principles. Straight, tapered, loose-hem, and wide-leg silhouettes complement the overall fit and flow of an outfit.
Check product details for fit and silhouette information to ensure the style matches your preference. This guidance will help you shop confidently across kurtis, dresses, skirts, pants, and future additions.

How to Measure Yourself
For the best fit, use a soft measuring tape and measure over light clothing. Keep the tape comfortably close to your body without pulling it too tight.
Choosing Your Size
Birdlap styles are available in sizes XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, and 4XL.
Use the size chart on the product page as your primary reference. If your measurements fall between two sizes, select the larger size for a more relaxed fit.
These are the most commonly followed size guidelines. However, a few designs may vary depending on the style, fabric, and silhouette.
Dress measurements may also vary according to the design. For example, a straight-fit kurti and an A-line kurti may have different waist and hip measurements even when the bust measurement is the same.
Always check the product-specific size chart before placing your order.

A Note on Fit
Some Birdlap designs are intentionally relaxed, while others are more structured. Variations in fabric, cut, and silhouette are part of the design and help create the intended look.
A straight-fit style will usually sit closer to the body, while an A-line style will offer more room around the waist and hips. Similarly, palazzo pants will feel more relaxed than tapered or straight pants.
The product description will mention the silhouette and fit details wherever applicable.
