We’ve all been there—you order a stunning outfit online, only to find it’s either too tight or way too loose. While online shopping is convenient, finding your perfect fit can be tricky without trying clothes on first.
At MASK, we believe style should always meet comfort, and that starts with choosing the right size. Here’s your ultimate guide to picking the right size every time you shop for a fashion brand online. So you can skip the return process and start styling instantly.
Why Size Matters in Online Shopping
Your outfit’s fit is what takes it from "just okay" to "absolutely perfect." A good fit enhances your silhouette, improves comfort, and ensures you look confident in every setting.

Always check each brand’s individual size guide |
Hacks to Pick the Right Size Online
1. Know Your Measurements
Grab a measuring tape and note down:
-
Bust/Chest
-
Waist
-
Hips
-
Shoulder Width
-
Inseam (for pants)
2. Read the Product Description Carefully
At MASK, we add details like fabric stretch, fit type, and model size in every product description. A "slim fit" cotton shirt will sit differently from a "relaxed fit" linen shirt.
Try: Slim Fit Cotton Shirt – MASK
Or go for the relaxed-fit shirt.
3. Check the Fabric Type
Some fabrics stretch, others don’t. Cotton has minimal stretch, linen is airy but structured, and blends often have a little give.
Stretch-friendly pick: Cotton Blend Co-ord Set
Structured pick: Linen Beige shirt
4. Look at the Model’s Height & Size
If a model is wearing size M and is 5’8", you can estimate how it might fit your frame. This works especially well for dresses, pants, and longline shirts.
Example: Oversized T-Shirt – MASK
5. Use Customer Reviews (If Available)
Reviews can reveal whether an item runs small, true to size, or large. At MASK, we encourage customers to share size feedback to help other shoppers.
Final Word: Confidence in Every Click
Picking the right size when shopping online is all about preparation and attention to detail. With the right measurements, an understanding of fabrics, and careful reading of size charts, you’ll avoid the disappointment of ill-fitting clothes.
At MASK, our goal is to make online shopping as smooth as possible—with detailed size charts, fit descriptions, and customer-friendly returns. Because the right fit is always in style.
