Specialty Sportswear’s sizing scheme is not the same as any other manufacturer. Our patterns have been developed from years of designing and manufacturing active stretch wear for individual clients. For instance: our size 12 is a starting point for someone standing 5’ to 5’4” and weighing 100 to 120 pounds. In this category we have worked with clients of all ages but the majority of the clients in this group were around 12 years old.
This gives you a form, the pattern, to work with that will be the least amount of work for you to MASTER your pattern: apply your skaters measurements to the pattern form and make the needed changes. Below are the approximate measurements that can also be used for sizing purposes...the stretch of the fabric is the variable.
We don’t advise using a larger size because proportions are different. The dress/leo needs to stay in proportion, add or subtract only to those measurements that need to be changed. The skirt/bodice inset line on the side seam is the same series to series within a size group. That point needs to sit at the top of the hip. From there is where you make your adjustments.
