Size Charts

The issue of sizing has been addressed. You should now find that a medium size in one style should be the same fit as any other relevant style in any Peter Alexander catalogue.

You will notice little 'guide lines' information next to the garments description that will help explain small differences in fit. These are designed to ensure you know what to expect without actually being able to try things on. With our flannelette pj's for example, you will find little helpers such as 'cut slightly longer in length to allow for natural shrinkage' or other information like 'wide leg' or 'hipster fit'.

The photo should always be a good guide as to how the garment will fit, remembering that most of the models are a ladies size 10, mens size 12. However because of their height, they do sometimes wear a size medium to cater for the length.

Please find below the measurements of a basic 'long pyjama'. Obviously the measurements for certain styles will alter: for example - a shortie pyjama sleeve and leg length will be shorter but the rest will be the same.
