Measuring your body: Use a soft tape measure directly against your body. Measure your waist at the narrowest point and your hips approximately 20 cm below your natural waist.
Compare to a favourite piece: Measure a similar garment you already own and love, then compare to our size guide for the most accurate fit.
Between sizes? We generally suggest sizing down as our clothing is designed to be flowy. Measurements may vary by 2–3 cm as each garment is measured by hand.

The Three Measurements That Matter
Place the tape close under the armhole at the fullest part of your bust. Measure from side seam, around and back to the same side seam.
Keep the tape parallel to the floor — snug but not tight.
Measure at the narrowest point — usually 2–3 cm above your belly button. Place the tape from side seam, around and back.
Exhale naturally before taking the measurement.
Place the tape approximately 20 cm below your natural waistline at the fullest part of your hips. Measure all the way around.
Stand with feet together for the most accurate result.

Get In TouchLove this tee! It’s incredibly comfortable, with a relaxed fit making it perfect for everyday wear. The simple oversized design makes it so easy to style with anything, making it a staple piece I’ll be wearing on repeat.
Love it!
Sweetest graphic Tee that fits with any posey pants!
This shirt is so freaking amazing! I love it so much, feel absolutely adorable and it’s clearly very well made and designed!
Love the tee so much! I am living in the essential tees (I have four now), love the slide seams for breastfeeding and also just so the tee isn’t hugging your hips 🔥
Super lightweight, stretchy and oh so comfy this is literally my most worn item in my cupboard!
The material is so thick and good quality which I really love. Nicely oversized (I am size 8 and got the XS). It has zips on the side which seems a bit unnecessary if you don't breastfeed (I am breastfeeding but don't use it, I just pull my top up) - would maybe be better if they made two versions of the tees so you can choose if you have zips or not - but it isn't really noticeable and doesn't bother me.
Such a comfortable tee! Perfect for a breastfeeding mama!
Looovveee this shirt, I match it with the same coloured essentials pants and it’s always such an easy but put together outfit. The new zips the open all the way up are fantastic too !! 🫶
Such a cute summer top. Love the print and side zips for breast feeding
The fabric is so soft and comfy and I love the colours, super cute.
A very cutesy shirt, which can be paired with anything. Comfy and accessible for breast feeding! LOVE/10…. 1000
Love the essential tee! Especially in the emerald and white colourway. Comfy yet classy and being a mum of 3, it's the perfect tee. I wear it weekly, it's become my uniform.
Love my essential tee! Such a perfect neutral colour to go with my other TLC items!
This tee is so cute and goes with everything! Definitely cool mum vibes
Love this tee so much. Been waiting for a restock and finally was able to snatch it up! Thick, heavy, but nice and soft.
I love this tee so much! I sized up for this one and it's so comfy. I can wear it as a going out shirt as well as a Pj top! The side zips make it so much easier to feed my daughter too!
This product is awesome while it is obviously the old style with the zips not going all the way down I don’t mind. I bought it with the matching pants and the colour match is phenomenal. The only fall back is that it shrunk slightly in the wash but the sizes are slightly oversized and definitely allow for this.
I had bought breastfeeding specific tees from another brand a couple months ago, didn’t love the material but it was OK for the feeding aspect. Purchased just one of Essentials Tee, and I am literally getting one in each ‘capsule colour’! The quality and feel is unmatched, the fit, the length of zips, everything is just 🙌🏼👏🏼
I've been reluctant in the past to purchase a tee, as I always thought "I can get a tee for way cheaper at any store".
That is in fact incorrect. If you're looking for decent quality, sizing, the feel, and if you're a feeding mumma, this is the absolute best tee. Not to mention the colour is stunning. Im not a feeding mumma, so I don't require the zips, but I didn't not even notice them, or feel them whilst wearing. 11/10.
