DCActv Fit Guide

Find Your Perfect Dhoyin Couture Fit

Our activewear is designed with a high-compression, second-skin fit. The fabric uses "negative ease," meaning the garment is intentionally cut smaller than your body to provide maximum support, shaping, and stretch without restriction during activity.

To ensure the best fit, please measure your body and compare your measurements to the chart below.

1. Body Size Chart (Fits Up To)

This chart shows the maximum body measurements that each garment size is designed to fit comfortably and securely. If you are between sizes, size up for a more relaxed compression or size down for a firmer, locked-in feel.

3. How to Measure Yourself

Measurement How to Measure
Chest (Bust) Measure around the fullest part of your chest/bust, keeping the tape straight across your back.
Under Bust Measure directly below your bust, around your ribcage.
Waist Measure around the narrowest part of your torso, typically above your belly button.
Hip Measure around the fullest part of your hips and rear.
Outseam (Length) Measure from your natural waist (or hip) down to your desired hemline.


Fit Tip:

Bottoms: If your Waist and Hip fall into two different sizes, choose the size that accommodates your Hip measurement for the best fit.

Tops: If your Chest and Under Bust fall into two different sizes, choose the size based on your Chest for comfort, or your Under Bust for maximum support (for sports bras).
