your orderOPTIONS

This refers to both RTW womenswear and K womenswear sizes (more on p.32) and represents the most affordable option. Clothes are cut from averaged measurement blocks, just like the clothes you’re familiar with buying from other high street stores. We leave you freedom to combine different sized tops and bottoms within outfits. Select yours from the drop down box on each product page.

Ideal for those who feel that averaged sizes never quite fit in one spot or two, but don’t need to pay for fully bespoke. With this option you can send us a few of your body measure-ments to alter the style. These can be the chest, waist, hip and height. Find our Kraken Measurement Form on the website or email us to request a copy.

Whether you would like one of our existing styles to be perfectly adjusted to your figure or to create something truly ‘you’, our premium bespoke option allows the greatest control over every aspect of your order.To know more visit our website, or email us for our free bespoke guide.

At Kraken we are proud bespoke specialists, and understand fitting and bud-get are crucial factors for every custumer to make the right decision. That’s why we offer 3 options:
