Zuhair Murad Size Guide: French to UK and US Sizing

Zuhair Murad cuts to French sizing, and the house gives no advice to change size, so the answer is simple: take your usual size.

How each category fits

Gowns and dresses. The bodices are fitted and often boned, as on the Corseted Long Dress. Take your usual size and choose by your bust, since a tailor can take in a waist far more easily than let out a bodice.

Jackets. Strong shoulders and a fitted waist, as on the Lace-Up Cady Jacket in Black. If you are between sizes, go by the shoulder.

Skirts and trousers. They sit high on the waist and are cut long for heels, as on the Draped Chiffon Long Skirt in Violet Quartz and the Wide-Leg Wool Trousers in Eggnog. Choose by your waist and plan a hem if you wear a low heel.

Kaftans. Cut loose with a tie waist, as on the Cady Kaftan in Tawny Port, so your usual size works.

How to measure yourself

Measure your bust at the fullest point, your waist at the narrowest point and your hips at the fullest point, with a soft tape held level. Compare the numbers with the size guide on each Coveti product page, which shows the UK ladder for that piece. If your bust and hips fall in different sizes, choose by the bust for dresses and by the hips for skirts and trousers.

Frequently asked questions

Does Zuhair Murad fit true to size?

Yes. The house cuts to French sizing and gives no advice to size up and no advice to size down, so take your usual size. French 36 is UK 8 and French 40 is UK 12. Coveti lists every piece on a UK 4 to UK 18 ladder.

What size is FR 38 in UK?

French 38 is UK 10 and US 6.

Is Zuhair Murad sized small?

No. The house cuts to standard French sizing. Because the gowns are fitted, pick the size that fits your bust.

Are Zuhair Murad dresses long?

Yes. Gowns and long skirts are cut to wear with heels, so they graze the floor on most people.

Can I return a Zuhair Murad piece if it does not fit?
