Size & Fit
To check sizing, lay a similar garment flat and measure, be sure to double bust, waist, and hip measurements to match ours.
Please keep in mind that, due to the handmade nature of our garments and the varying characteristics of natural fabrics, small variations in measurements can occur. These are minor and well within standard tolerances, but worth considering when selecting your size.

I ordered a 10 and it’s a perfect fit. I am 12D bust. 173cm
Goes great with pink. This is my 6th dress from mahashe

Highly recommend
Thankyou MahaShe on another gorgeous dress. I especially love the colour and print of this dress. Your dresses and jumpsuits are always easy to wear and keep me cool and fresh! I’m wearing a size 8 and it fits me perfectly !
I’m wearing in Bali and have received several compliments
Love the cut and style

Thank you Dominique for your kind words, you look so beautiful and make us proud!
The dress was true to size and fitted perfectly
I really like the fit of this tunic. It’s great to have a tunic with some shape to it, not just a sack! I would love more colour options in the corduroy and maybe some button up the front versions.
My first time ordering from MahaShe. I loved the look of the Alana dress in Viola and after taking my measurements and comparing them to the size guide, I ordered and hoped for the best! 😬
Needless to say, it is a perfect fit! 🤩I am extremely happy and can’t wait to wear it when the weather warms up.
I have 3 Alana dresses, which I wear every day. The cotton keeps me cool in our high humidity & heat in far North Queensland. The style is really flattering and I have received lots of compliments. I love MahaShe clothing.
Fabric and colours are even prettier than the photos. I get lots of compliments wearing this out. The only disappointment is that after carefully measuring and comparing sizing to other similar dresses I own, I was still unable to get the right size. The dress was far too big. As I bought it on 'sale' I was unable to return it. Im reasonably handy with a sewing machine so I was able to make alterations but, even on sale it's a lot of money to spend on an item that needs major adjustments to make it fit.
So comfortable, gorgeous soft fabric and flattering style. Love it!
Love this dress ! So comfy and so many lovely fabrics to choose from ! I’ve now got 4 of the Alana dress 💗
I love this dress it is comfortable and lightweight but would recommend if you want it a little bit more relaxed around the hips to go up a size. I’m an 8 and purchased a 10 and I could have gone up to 12 just for more room.
Thank you for your lovely review, Amanda — we're so glad to hear you're enjoying the dress.
The Alana is designed as a more fitted style through the waist and hips, so some customers do choose to size up if they prefer a looser or more relaxed fit in that area. Others find their usual size works well, particularly if they like a more tailored silhouette.
Because our garments are made from structured cotton rather than stretch fabrics, body shape and personal fit preference can influence which size feels most comfortable. For this reason, we always recommend checking the garment measurements and fit notes on the product page when selecting a size, as fit can vary from one style to another.
We really appreciate you sharing your experience — it’s always helpful for other customers when choosing their size.
Beautiful love these dresses!
Great cut and fit, as soon as I put it on I knew it was a keeper. True to size and nicely made😁
Another MahaShe dress added to my collection of nine! I love the colours in this one, perfect for me. I wear my MahaShe dresses through the warm summer in Western Australia and can dress them up or look casual.
I have this dress patterm in a summer and winter version and always get compliments.
Have never been disappointed with any of my purchases!
II really love the quality of your garments, the cotton is beautiful. Love the patterns well done
beautiful dress to wear , easy and stylish. The customer service was great and quick delivery
Very pleased with my purchase lovely dress perfect fit
Well made and natural fabric!
i have 8. I love them. The cotton makes them cool to wear in summer and the style of this dress fits well and is easy to wear. Pack a few for the overseas summer trip or load up for our summers here. They really are the best dress to wear. Dress it up or dress it down. Always looks good.
Perfect fit and gorgeous colours
This dress fit me perfectly pockets make it spot on for the school run and it's light weight! Great in summer. The short length is good for layering in the autumn and winter. Sizing is perfect too! Great dress. First time I wore it I had random people stop me to ask where I got it from! So keep making these fantastic pieces!
Thank you so much for your lovely words! We’re so happy to hear this dress is ticking all the boxes for you—from the perfect fit and handy pockets to its versatility across the seasons. It’s always so wonderful to hear when our pieces turn heads and spark conversations!
Your kind words and encouragement truly mean so much to us. We’ll definitely keep making pieces you love x
Great fit. My favorite is the Alana Dress
Sadly it didn’t fit well so I returned it
I’ll try a different style as I love the fabric
It’s more green than blue
I love this dress for work as it’s comfy with a bright happy Japanese pattern. The pockets are a clever, practical addition and the cut is flattering for me in a size 8. Cotton is perfect for a hot climate. Love it!!
This is my second Alana dress. I really like the style, the fabric and the colours.
I took a risk and bought this dress on sale. I'm so impressed by the workmanship and quality. It it too big around the armholes but a good fit around the middle. I will have it altered. I will be buying more!
I’m absolutely thrilled with my new dress. The fit is perfect and colours vibrant and the cotton feels great. This is my second Alana dress and it’s fabulous
I wore this to my Mahjong group, everyone commented on this dress and how they thought it looked great and suited me. The colours and design were very flattering & suited the season. Cotton and sleeveless in Queensland is fabulous.
Bought this dress on sale so no returns. I bought the same size as my other Mayashe dresses. This one is smaller so therefore to tight for me. Not sure if the wrong suze label was sewn onto the dress
Thank you for your feedback Katherine! We’re sorry to hear the fit wasn’t as expected. Cotton garments do naturally stretch over time, sometimes by as much as a whole size, which can make older dresses feel roomier compared to a brand-new one in the same size.
