Fit information
This is the close fit version and is designed to fit around the arm scye area with wearable ease to the measurement chart.
If the wearer is close to the measurements or prefers a looser fit top, then you may prefer the basic fit top with more ease in the arm scye area. The ease around the body is around 4cm depending on fabric choices.
