Taller Marmo cuts Italian sizes IT 36 to 48, and the brand says its sized pieces fit true to size. On Coveti an IT 36 is a UK 4 and an IT 48 is a UK 16. Many Taller Marmo kaftans are one size, which the brand says comfortably fits between an Italian 36 and an Italian 48.
That covers most orders. The rest of this guide is for the details that decide whether a piece feels right: the full conversion table, which kaftans are one size and which are not, how each silhouette sits on the body, what the model heights tell you about length, and how to think through a choice between two sizes using only what the brand and the product pages actually state.
How does Taller Marmo sizing work?
The label sizes its fitted pieces in Italian sizes and cuts many kaftans in a single size.
Taller Marmo was founded in 2013 by Riccardo Audisio and Yago Goicoechea, who met at the Istituto Marangoni in Milan, and every piece is made in Italy. The Italian size run goes from IT 36 to IT 48. Coveti lists those sized pieces in UK sizes, so you will see UK 4, UK 6 and so on in the size menu on each product page. The brand’s own guidance is short: the sized pieces fit true to size.
What is the Taller Marmo size chart?
Use the table below: find your usual UK size, then read across to the Italian size the brand cuts.
| Italian (IT) | UK (Coveti) | US (approx.) | EU and French (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| IT 36 | UK 4 | US 0 | EU 32 |
| IT 38 | UK 6 | US 2 | EU 34 |
| IT 40 | UK 8 | US 4 | EU 36 |
| IT 42 | UK 10 | US 6 | EU 38 |
| IT 44 | UK 12 | US 8 | EU 40 |
| IT 46 | UK 14 | US 10 | EU 42 |
| IT 48 | UK 16 | US 12 | EU 44 |
The Italian and UK columns are the conversion Coveti uses. The US column follows the usual rule of the UK size minus four. The EU and French column is the standard industry conversion of the Italian size minus four, included for reference; it is not a brand chart. When in doubt, go by the Italian size.
Which Taller Marmo kaftans are one size?
Most of the crepe cady and satin kaftans are one size, while the sheer layered kaftans worn over a slip come in sizes.
The brand describes its one-size kaftans as fitting comfortably between an Italian 36 and an Italian 48. That covers the house classics. The Mrs Ross Kaftan, the OOO Kaftan and the Mila Satin Kaftan are all one size, as are the 1910 Kaftan, the California, Barths, Maar and Dallas kaftans, and the sequinned Firefly.
The exceptions matter. The Sphinx Kaftan layers metallic organza over a matching stretch crepe cady slip dress, and it comes in sizes. So do the Kintsugi, the Sza Sza Fantasma, the Denver and the Velvet Vegas. Always check the size menu on the product page: if it shows “One Size”, the kaftan is cut to the brand’s one-size range.
| Kaftan | Length | Fabric | Sizing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mrs Ross | Ankle-length | Crepe cady | One size |
| OOO | Floor-length | Crepe cady | One size |
| Mila Satin | Maxi | Double viscose satin | One size |
| 1910 | Floor-length | Crepe cady | One size |
| California | Short, high-low | Crepe cady | One size |
| Barths | Floor-length | Crepe cady | One size |
| Sphinx | Floor-length | Metallic organza over a slip | UK sizes |
| Kintsugi | Floor-length | Silk fil coupe with a slip | UK sizes |
| Velvet Vegas | Short | Viscose and silk velvet | UK sizes |

How do Taller Marmo silhouettes fit?
Fit depends on the silhouette: columns and cocoons give room, while mermaid shapes and flared trousers are close through the hips.
Column
The column is the core Taller Marmo dress shape. The Del Rio Dress is an ankle-length column with a clean central line and bell sleeves, and the Brooks Dress is a blouson column with a cold shoulder. The Astor Dress is a halter column whose skirt falls wide and loose. These shapes skim the body.
Mermaid
The mermaid pieces are the closest-fitting in the line. The Butterfly Gown has cocoon volume through the blouse, then a long mermaid skirt that falls close to the body. The Dragon Gown follows the body in a smooth line and is cut in stretch crepe cady with 4% elastane. The Silver Screen Satin Skirt is high at the waist and close through the hips before it flares at the floor. Of the three, only the Dragon Gown has stretch in the fabric.
Cocoon
The cocoon is the Fall 2026 reference to Paul Poiret, and it is generous by design. The 1920 Blouse is a one-size cocoon in silk fil coupe, and the 1910 kaftans use the same rounded volume at full length. In gowns such as the Butterfly, the cocoon sits only in the bodice, so the fit question moves to the skirt.
Palazzo and flare
The Marlene Satin Pants are high-waisted with wide legs, so the waist is the measurement that counts. The Mae Pants are different: high at the waist and fitted through the hips and thighs, then flared from the knee, in stretch crepe cady. The Eolia Jumpsuit pairs a soft blouson top with long palazzo legs.
How tall are Taller Marmo models, and what size do they wear?
Models on the brand site are 173 to 180 cm tall and wear an IT 38, with one size in the kaftans.
That is useful for length. An IT 38 is a UK 6. If you are shorter than 173 cm, the floor-length gowns and kaftans will sit longer on you than they do in the brand’s photographs, and an ankle-length style such as the Mrs Ross will fall closer to the floor. If you are taller than 180 cm, ankle-length pieces will sit a little higher. Plan your shoe height around the hem you want; our designer shoes edit has heels for both.
How do you choose between two Taller Marmo sizes?
The brand only says its sized pieces fit true to size, so the most reliable approach is to compare the product details with clothes you already own.
Taller Marmo does not publish advice on sizing up, nor on sizing down, and we will not invent it. What you can do is read each product page closely, because the facts there tell you a lot.
- Read the composition. Stretch crepe cady lists 4% elastane, which gives some give. Standard crepe cady (78% acetate, 22% viscose) and double viscose satin (62% acetate, 38% viscose) list no elastane.
- Find where the piece is fitted. The product copy says where the shape is close: the body on the Dragon Gown, the hips and thighs on the Mae Pants, the hips on the Silver Screen skirt. Those are the measurements to compare.
- Measure a piece you own. Take a dress in a similar fabric and shape that fits you well, and compare it with the size you are considering.
- Consider a one-size alternative. If you sit between sizes in a fitted gown, a one-size kaftan in the same fabric removes the question.
Every piece is professional dry clean only, so take any alterations to a specialist who works with eveningwear. For buying advice beyond fit, read our guide on where to buy Taller Marmo, and for the story of the house, who is Taller Marmo. The full range is on the Taller Marmo brand page, and the new season is in our Fall 2026 edit.
