Measuring Guide

Not sure what size of gloves you need? Please watch our video measuring guide and refer to the size chart below. This will help you capture the most accurate measurements. Our gloves are made to measure, so we want to ensure a perfect fit.

We make our gloves in hand sizes from 6 to 8½. To find your glove size, pass a tape measure around the widest part of your hand - usually over your knuckles, excluding the thumb. The result, in inches, is your glove size. If you are between two sizes, round down to the lower.

Here is how you convert from centimetres to inches:

Glove size	Inches	Centimetres
6	6	15.2
6½	6½	16.5
7	7	17.8
7½	7½	19
8	8	20.3
8½	8½	21.6

How do I guess someone's glove size?

If you are buying gloves for someone and don't know their glove size (and don't want to ruin the surprise), their height can indicate their most likely glove size. Please note, this is statistically most likely but won't be correct 100% of the time.

Applies to women only

Height	Most likely glove size
Under 5'1"	6½
5'1" to 5'6"	7
5'7" to 5'8"	7½
5'9" to 5'11"	8
Above 6'	8½

Upper Arm Fit

For our Opera length gloves, we take a measurement for your upper arm fit to ensure the glove has a correct and flattering fit all the way up your arm. To be clear, the measurement we need is the circumference around your arm at the point where the glove ends - either your bicep or just above the elbow depending on the style of glove.

Please take care with this measurement and give it to us accurately. We really want your gloves to look perfect, and not be too loose or too tight. With your help we can get them just right!

How do I measure my Upper Arm?

Measure from where the thumb crease meets the wrist.

Keeping your arm relaxed, measure up the arm until you reach 16 inches. This is where the glove ends.

Measure the circunference of your arm at this point.

The exact result in inches is your Upper Arm Fit for an Opera Glove. Please round to the nearest 0.25 inches.

To convert centimetres to inches, divide by 2.54 - e.g. 23cm = 9 inches

My measurement is below 8.5 or above 15.5 inches, what should I do?

We will still be able to work to your specification, but please contact us before ordering.

Index Finger Fit

This optional measurement allows us to account for your finger length, if you suspect they are unusually long or short in relation to your hand width. Please provide the length of your Index finger in inches, starting from where it meets your middle finger. This measurement is usually between 2.25 and 3.5 inches.

Do I need to provide this?

No, this is a totally optional measurement. Please only worry about it if you suspect you have unusually long or short fingers in relation to your hand. Our standard fit is excellent for 90% of people.

Optional Additions

Every glove we make goes out in a beautiful, built to keep gift box but, if you want to go the extra mile and gift wrapping is not your thing, we can gift wrap for you. We use old school kraft paper in Lilac, satin ribbon and an (optional) handwritten gift note. All you have to do is choose the words.

A fine lace opera glove for brides, bridesmaids, and mothers of the bride who want something striking — cut to opera length in a bold, contemporary design from the house of Sophie Hallette.

Our lace comes from specialist houses in France and Austria — craftspeople who, like us, still work on nineteenth-century looms to achieve a level of intricacy that modern machinery simply cannot replicate. The result is a fabric with real graphic presence: structured enough to hold its own, fine enough to let the skin beneath show through.

At 16 inches, Zoe covers the arm from fingertip past the elbow with a continuous run of lace pattern — the kind of glove that doesn't need anything else going on. In Ivory it reads as romantic and bridal; in Black it turns quietly dramatic, suited to evening or a confident twist on wedding tradition.

Handmade by us in England. A glove for summer ceremonies, garden receptions, and anyone who wants to wear something beautiful and a little unexpected.

Glove Length: 16 inches

Opera Length. This is a 16 inch glove. This is measured from where the thumb seam meets the wrist, to the opening of the glove.

Material: Fine Lace

Our beautiful lace comes from France and Austria: two houses who have, like us, remained steadfast in their commitment to traditional methods of craftsmanship. The use of nineteenth century looms gives it that extra fine detail we hold so dear to our hearts.

Care Guide

Lace is more than decoration — it’s memory. A lace glove feels almost weightless on the hand, but never invisible. It’s feminine, intricate, and timelessly formal. Still, despite its delicacy, lace can be remarkably resilient when treated with a light touch.

It doesn’t need special treatment — just thoughtful handling and space to move.

Let It Unfold

Machine washing is possible, but only on the gentlest cycle and always within a delicates bag. Give lace the space it needs. Don’t crowd the drum, and don’t rush the drying. Once clean, lay the gloves flat and let them breathe. Trims and bows may need a moment of reshaping by hand — nothing more.

Care Method

Wash cold on a delicate cycle inside a mesh bag. Dry flat. Reshape by hand. Avoid friction, heat, or spin cycles that may damage trims.

When Detail Needs Preserving

For lace gloves with vintage embroidery, beading or fragile structure, a professional cleaner familiar with bridal or formal accessories can refresh them safely and beautifully.

Handmade in Sussex, England

The hub of our glovemaking operation is a small, flint walled building that was built some 150 years ago to house dairy cows. All around us are pastures. A mile to the south, the green hills of the South Downs separate us from the salt seas of the English Channel.

It takes a lot to make a good pair of gloves. Great fabrics, selected with great care from mills large and small, skill and people with a passion for making things just right.

Almost everything we make is made to order. So that the person who is making your gloves knows exactly what you want in terms of glove size, style and dimensions. They will also know your name and you will know theirs because, when they’ve finished your gloves and they’re completely happy with them, they will sign the tag to say so.

It’s Complimentary

We don’t believe in charging our customers for advice. It’s not only the quality of our products that sets us apart but our approach. As advocates of slow fashion, we endeavour to guide you in making the right decision. Our gloves transcend seasons, so take your time to consider your purchase — we’re just happy to offer some friendly advice along the way.

“They are beautifully made. I highly recommend scheduling a video call to ensure that the measurements are correct, which Genevieve was able to determine together with me.”

Alterations

If you would like to have the length of your gloves adjusted, we can typically accommodate that. Please just contact us to confirm before ordering.
