Size & Fit Guide

Size & Fit Guide

The right size is the difference between shapewear that feels supportive and shapewear that rolls, digs, or feels uncomfortable.

Measure first

Use a soft measuring tape directly against your body, not over clothing.

Between sizes?

Choose the larger size for comfort or the smaller size for stronger compression.

Still unsure?

Email measurements to support@zarela.com.

How to Measure

  • Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest.
  • Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your torso.
  • Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat.
  • Torso: For bodysuits, consider your height and torso length. If you are tall or between sizes, sizing up can improve comfort.

Compression Guide

Light

Soft smoothing for everyday outfits and easy movement.

Medium

Balanced shaping for dresses, workwear, and daily wear.

Firm

Stronger sculpting for special occasions or structured outfits.

Fit should never feel painful

Your shapewear should feel supportive, not restrictive. If it rolls, digs, pinches, or makes it hard to breathe or sit, choose a different size or compression level.
