Your measurements

To make sure your costume fits, we check every order against the measurements you enter before shipping. If an item is too tight, we'll get in touch with you.

* Required: height and weight. All other measurements are optional but help us check the fit.

How to measure
  • Height: Without shoes, from the top of the head to the floor.
  • Weight: Your current body weight – it helps us judge the fit.
  • Chest: Under the arms, around the fullest part of the chest, snug but not tight.
  • Arm length: From the tip of the shoulder over the slightly bent elbow to the wrist.
  • Waist: Around the body where the trousers, apron or sash should sit.
  • Hips: Around the widest part of the seat.
  • Inside leg: From the crotch to the ankle, without shoes.

Ideally, have someone else measure you – directly on the body, in underwear or close-fitting clothes.

A little room is fine Traditional costume pieces are cut generously. If an item has some room, you can have it taken in yourself by a tailor of your choice – an item that is too tight can hardly be altered. If in doubt, choose the larger size.

The complete Albanian men's traditional costume from Gjakova with a brown waistcoat – ready-assembled in one set. A white shirt with black wavy trim, Tirq (traditional trousers) with an elastic waistband, a woven Shoka (sash) and the white Plis (traditional cap) complete the ensemble.
