About the Brand

Ann Demeulemeester, a renowned Belgian fashion designer, emerged as a prominent figure within the ‘Antwerp Six,’ a group of avant-garde designers who revolutionized the fashion industry in the 1980s. She launched her eponymous fashion label in 1987, emphasizing a unique and darkly poetic aesthetic characterized by monochromatic palettes and unconventional tailoring. Her designs often blended elements of romance, poetry and avant-garde fashion, and she explored the delicate interplay between masculinity and femininity in clothing. Ann Demeulemeester’s impact on the fashion world endures, and her innovative designs continue to inspire the industry. Since she left her eponymous label in 2013, Sébastien Meunier did a stunning job of continuing Ann Demeulemeester’s legacy and not so much for the following successors that came after.

Measurement Guide

Every piece is measured by hand, laid flat, in centimetres. Each listing carries its own figures under Measurements. The diagrams below show where each figure is taken.

How we measure

Pieces are laid flat and smoothed without stretching.
Figures across the body cover one side only. Double Pit to Pit, Waist, Thigh and Leg Opening for the full circumference.
Archival sizing differs between designers, seasons and countries. A tagged JP 2 or IT 48 tells you less than the figures do.
Hand measurements of worn garments can vary slightly. Allow a small margin of error.

Finding your fit

Choose a piece you own that fits the way you want.
Lay it flat on a hard surface and smooth it out without stretching.
Measure it at the points shown below.
Compare your figures with the listing.

Shoulder
Straight across, from one shoulder seam to the other.

4

From the bottom of the collar seam at the back, straight down to the hem.

Short-sleeve and sleeveless pieces follow the same points. Jumpsuits and other one-piece garments are listed as a top half and a bottom half, using this diagram and the next. Raglan shoulders without seams are measured using best judgement according to the piece.

Bottoms
