Measuring Guide

Find Your Perfect Size

Christopher & Banks offers the perfect fit for your size.  Bust, waist, and hip measurements have been proportionally adjusted to different dimensions for Missy, Women Plus, and Petite figures — it's what makes your sizing unique.  Christopher & Banks creates clothing scaled to proportionately accurate sizing, rather than making the same dimensions larger or smaller.  Christopher & Banks offers this variety so you can find some beautiful additions for your wardrobe that fit your body, just as it is.

For the most accurate results, have someone else measure you. Also, please keep in mind that it is best to measure while you're wearing undergarments, not a shirt or pants.

Bust

Place the measuring tape under your arms and measure around the fullest part of your bustline.

Waist

Measure around the narrowest part of your torso, usually above your belly button.

Hips

With your feet together, measure around the fullest part of your hips, usually at the top of your legs.

Inseam

Measure from the top of your inner thigh down to your ankle bone.

Petite

Who can wear petites?

The most flattering petite fit not only addresses height, but proportions, too. Petite sizing is designed for women 5'4" (163cm) and under, but there are other factors that determine who should wear petites. If you have narrow shoulders or proportionately shorter arms, you may be able to wear petite tops. If your legs are proportionately shorter than your torso, you may want to try petite pants and skirts.

Christopher & Banks was an American retail company headquartered in the Minneapolis suburb of Plymouth, Minnesota that specialized in women's clothing for the age 40-60 demographic.

The chain was founded in 1956 as Braun's Fashions in Minneapolis. It became a publicly traded company in 1992, and was re-branded as Christopher & Banks in 2000.  Also in 2000, the chain founded a second brand, CJ Banks, which is a plus-size clothing store.

In 2014, the company began phasing out CJ Banks stores, and combining the plus-size lines into Christopher & Banks stores. In cases where such stores were adjacent, the stores were combined into one larger store.

In January 2021, the company announced that it filed for bankruptcy and would be closing all stores due to financial loss from the ongoing the COVID-19 pandemic.

They are also great for body measurement, sewing, tailoring, weight loss tracking, or measuring any curved surface.

How to measure without a ruler or tape measure?

If you don't have a ruler or tape measure handy, you can try to measure with a standard credit card, which has a width of 3 ⅜ inch or 8.56 cm and a height of 2 ⅛ inch or 5.4 cm.
