The Nookie Fit

Every Nookie piece is thoughtfully designed to accentuate your natural shape. We craft our garments using premium, signature stretch fabrics with gentle contour to your silhouette delivering a flawless, feminine fit with ease and elegance.

1. Step Into Your Nookie Piece

Always step in from the bottom, never over the head. Our dresses are tapered at the hem to create a graceful hourglass silhouette. Trust the design, step in and let it shape you.

2. A Little Help Goes A Long Way

You may need a hand with the zipper, this is perfectly normal. The fit is intentionally snug to sculpt your figure, much like built-in shapewear. Once zipped, you'll feel the signature Nookie fit which is sleek, secure, and always flattering.

3. Style With Finishing Touches

Try on with the heels/shoes you plan to wear to ensure the hemline falls just right. You may also wish to try with your preferred bra, though our styles are designed to support and enhance the bust on their own with many styles having added bust support features like wadding and boning. For the smoothest finish, we recommend seamless undergarments.

How to measure

Bust: measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
Waist: measure around your natural waistline, keeping the tape comfortably loose.
Hip: stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips.

For best results, have someone else take your measurements, or use a mirror to check the tape is level.
