Monari Size Guide: Find Your Perfect Fit
Shopping for Monari online and wondering which size to choose? You're not alone. One of the most common questions we hear is, "Does Monari run true to size?"
As one of Germany's leading premium fashion brands, Monari is loved for its flattering cuts, exceptional comfort and beautiful attention to detail. Whether you're shopping for a cosy knit, a statement jacket or the perfect pair of jeans, choosing the right size will help you enjoy everything the brand has to offer.
In this guide, we'll explain how Monari sizing works, how European sizes convert to Australian sizes, and share our expert fitting advice after helping Australian women find their perfect Monari fit for many years.
Does Monari Run True to Size?
The short answer is yes.
Monari generally fits true to size, and most customers are comfortable ordering their usual Australian size.
One of the reasons Monari has become such a favourite is its thoughtful balance between style and comfort. Many garments are crafted from premium fabrics with added stretch, while relaxed silhouettes and flattering cuts make the collection easy to wear across a wide range of body shapes.
As with any fashion brand, some styles are designed to fit differently. Relaxed knitwear naturally offers more room, while tailored jackets and slim-cut trousers have a more structured fit.
If you're ever unsure, our team is always happy to recommend the best size before you order.
Official Monari Size Chart
If your measurements fall between two sizes, we generally recommend considering the intended fit of the garment. Relaxed knitwear offers more flexibility, while tailored pieces may fit best when choosing the larger size.
How to Measure Yourself
The easiest way to find your perfect Monari size is by comparing your body measurements with the official size chart.
Bust
Measure around the fullest part of your bust while keeping the measuring tape comfortably snug and level.
Waist
Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waist, usually just above your belly button.
Hips
Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips.
Once you have these measurements, compare them with the Monari size chart to determine your ideal size.
How Monari Clothing Fits
While Monari generally runs true to size, different garment categories have their own characteristics.
Monari Knitwear
Monari knitwear is known for its soft feel, premium yarns and effortless styling.
Many jumpers and knit tops feature a slightly relaxed silhouette, making them incredibly comfortable without appearing oversized. If you prefer a neater fit, your usual size is generally the best choice.
Monari Jackets
Monari jackets are typically tailored to create a flattering silhouette while allowing enough room for light layering.
Leather-look jackets, quilted styles and blazers are all designed with comfort in mind and generally fit true to size.
Monari Tops & T-Shirts
Monari tops are often made from soft cotton blends with elastane for additional stretch and movement.
These pieces are designed to skim the body rather than fit tightly, making them an easy everyday wardrobe staple.
Monari Jeans & Trousers
Monari denim and trousers combine modern European styling with exceptional comfort.
Many styles include stretch fibres that provide flexibility throughout the day while maintaining their shape, making them ideal for everyday wear.

Many garments feature:
Premium European fabrics
Comfortable stretch materials
Relaxed yet flattering silhouettes
Beautiful tailoring
Exceptional attention to detail
It's this combination of quality and comfort that has made Monari one of Europe's most loved fashion brands.
