Frequently Asked Questions

Caring for Bavarian clothing depends on the fabric. Lederhosen require regular dusting and air-drying rather than washing. Dirndls and blouses can generally be machine or hand-washed in cold water using a gentle detergent. Always check the product care instructions before cleaning.

Store your Bavarian outfits in breathable garment bags in a cool, dark, and dry place.

Use low or suitable heat based on the fabric. Never iron delicate trims, lace, or hooks directly. Turn the dirndl inside out and use a press cloth or a steamer to avoid shiny spots. 

Choose your outfit, select the right size, check what is included, and add it to your cart. Complete your outfit and check out with your shipping and payment details.

Our size chart lists both EU and US sizes side by side, so you can order in whichever system you know. We recommend going by your actual bust, waist, and hip measurements rather than the size number, since these fit closer to the body than regular clothing.

German and EU sizes run on a different number scale than US sizes, so your usual US size will not match the EU number. For an idea, a US 4 is around EU 34, a US 8 is around EU 38, and a US 12 is around EU 42. Always check your measurements against our size chart before ordering.

To convert EU sizes to US sizes, use a general rule of thumb. For women, subtract 28-30 from the EU size to get your US dress size. For example, EU 36 is usually close to US 6, EU 38 to US 8, and EU 40 to US 10. 

You can get Bavarian outfits from XS up to plus size. Each product listing includes a full size chart for your assistance.

Measure your bust and waist with a soft tape. Wear the bra you plan to use with the dirndl when measuring. Match the larger of your two measurements to the size chart on each product page. Exact size charts are available on every product page to help you find your measurements.

A dirndl should fit snugly and flatteringly like a second skin, particularly at the waist and bust, without restricting your movement or breathing.

Women’s lederhosen should feel snug at the waist and hips, but not too tight. Real leather may loosen slightly after a few wears, so avoid choosing a very loose size.

Petite women look best in a short or midi dirndl with a fitted bodice and a higher waistline. Avoid very long skirts or heavy apron details, because they can make the body look shorter. A clean A-line skirt helps create a taller, balanced shape.

A V-neck or sweetheart neckline distributes volume and avoids the squashed look a round or high neckline creates on a large chest.

Choose based on the tightest measurement, usually the bust or waist. If both sizes are close, the larger size is often easier to adjust.
