Precision Meets Provocation — But What Size Should You Buy?

Christopher Esber is globally recognised for redefining modern minimalism. From sleek cut-out dresses to artfully twisted tailoring, his collections feature architectural silhouettes, body-conscious lines, and fluid fabrics that balance structure and sensuality.

But with distinctive detailing and slim-fit construction, sizing can vary — especially across cut-out styles, structured tailoring, and layered knits.

So how does Christopher Esber fit? What size should you order in the UK?

Let’s break it down.


Does Christopher Esber Run Big or Small?

Christopher Esber runs true to size overall, but cut slim through the bust, waist, and hips in many styles — particularly dresses, waist-snatching trousers, and cropped tops. Tailored pieces and styles with twist-front, ruched or panel detailing may feel smaller due to construction.

If you’re between sizes or fuller in the chest, hips or thighs, it’s usually better to size up for ease.

Christopher Esber Sizing by Category

✦ Dresses

Signature cut-outs, asymmetrical draping, and hip-framing silhouettes define many of Esber’s most iconic dresses. These tend to be fitted through the torso and may feel tight in the bust, waist or hips if unlined or in woven fabric.

Size up if you’re between sizes or curvy.

✦ Trousers & Skirts

Waistbands often sit high with wide-leg or column silhouettes. While many feature subtle stretch, the waistband area tends to be structured and narrow.

Size up if you’re fuller in the hips or thighs.

✦ Shirts, Bodysuits & Cut-Out Tops

Esber tops range from crisply tailored to fluid and barely-there. Woven cottons and bodysuits with cut-out details can run small, particularly through the arms or bust.

Size up for bust room or longer torsos.

✦ Knitwear & Ruched Sets

More forgiving than other categories. Often made from merino blends, jersey or ribbed knit, these pieces are true to size, with natural stretch and recovery.

Common Fit Questions

Are Christopher Esber cut-outs adjustable?

Not usually. Most cut-outs are fixed and strategically placed. If you’re between sizes or have a larger bust, size up for coverage and balance.

Do Esber pieces stretch?

Some do — especially knitwear and ruched jersey styles. Structured dresses, poplin shirts and crepe trousers do not.

How does it compare to other contemporary labels?

Christopher Esber fits more snugly than brands like Totême or Tibi, and similarly to The Attico or Khaite.

Tips Before You Buy

  • Always check the fabric — woven = no give

  • If you’re between sizes, size up in fitted or cut-out pieces

  • Use your measurements, not assumptions — especially if ordering from an AU site

  • Check length if tall — Esber’s dresses and tops are cut on the shorter side for a high-fashion silhouette
