Size Guide
Behuli Australia
Find Your Perfect Fit
South Asian garments are sized differently to Western clothing. Use this guide to find your ideal fit across all Behuli collections.
How to Measure
Use a soft measuring tape and measure directly over your undergarments for the most accurate fit.
📏
Bust
Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
📐
Waist
Measure around your natural waist — the narrowest part of your torso, usually 2–3 cm above your navel.
〰️
Hips
Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat, usually 18–22 cm below your natural waist.
↕️
Length
Measured from the highest point of the shoulder down to the hemline of the garment.
💡
South Asian sizing runs smaller than Australian sizes
If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up. For fitted kurtas, go true to size. For flowy styles like palazzo suits and anarkalis, you can go down one size.

Sizing Tips
The most common questions we get about Behuli sizing.
01
Always size up when in doubt
South Asian garments are designed with a traditional fit. The larger size will almost always look better and feel more comfortable when you're between sizes.
02
Silk runs smaller
Silk kurti sets have less stretch than cotton or chiffon. If you're a size M in cotton, consider L in silk for the same comfort.
03
Measure, don't guess
Your favourite jeans might be a size 12, but your actual measurements are what matters. Spending 2 minutes measuring prevents 99% of returns.
04
Height matters for length
If you're under 158 cm, long anarkalis may need hemming. If over 178 cm, check the garment length before ordering.
05
Wash care affects fit
Most Behuli garments are dry clean or hand wash only. Cotton blends may shrink slightly — size up if you plan to machine wash.
