Body measurements — measure yourself, not a garment. Keep the tape comfortably close without pulling tight.

How to measure

Three points for a better fit

01

Bust

Measure around the fullest part, keeping the tape level.

02

Waist

Measure around your natural waist at its narrowest point.

03

Hip

Stand with feet together and measure around the fullest part.

Between sizes? Choose the smaller for a closer fit or the larger for a more relaxed fit.

Important Notice

We Refund Every 10th Order

With a heavy heart, I must share that Bennett & Cole will be closing its doors due to my retirement. This decision has not been an easy one. Letting go of a lifetime of work is never simple, but I believe it is time. I can no longer uphold the standards of excellence that you deserve.

As a farewell and a sincere thank you for your loyalty over the years, we are offering our final handcrafted pieces at exceptional prices. In addition, we will refund the full purchase amount of every 10th order placed. Secure a piece of Bennett & Cole history before it is gone for good.

They can steal your recipe but the sauce won't taste the same.

They can steal your recipe but the sauce won't taste the same.

Mass production can imitate a silhouette, but it can never replace the soul of a garment. Our secret ingredient is the human hand — every stitch is guided with care, precision, and intent. Each design is strictly limited to just 10 pieces. Because anyone can produce a bag, but the feeling of true rarity cannot be manufactured.
