A general guide to our sizing. Where a product lists its own garment measurements in its description, those take priority over this chart. If a product says it runs small, order one size up.
How to measure
The most reliable way to choose is to measure a garment you own that fits well. Lay it flat, smooth it out and measure:
- Chest: straight across, armpit to armpit, then double it.
- Length: from the highest point of the shoulder to the hem.
- Sleeve: from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
Compare those numbers with the garment measurements on the product page. To measure your body instead, measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level.

The layer that makes a tee look intentional.
The Primrose is an open-front shawl collar cardigan in a soft, medium-weight knit. It drapes rather than clings, so it sits neatly over a tee or an Oxford shirt and can be layered under a coat.
Wear it over a white tee with tailored trousers and trainers, or swap in the Brick Lane Slim Black Jean for the weekend.
A shawl collar cardigan in soft cotton-blend knit
The Primrose is a men’s open-front shawl collar cardigan in a soft, medium-weight cotton-blend knit, with two front patch pockets. The rolled collar frames the neckline and the knit drapes rather than clings, so it sits neatly over a tee or Oxford shirt.
Black is the easiest to wear and Bottle Green the most distinctive, with Charcoal and Navy in between. Wear it over a white tee with tailored trousers and trainers, or with slim black jeans at the weekend. If you are between sizes, size up.
