Glove lengths

Our gloves come in a variety of lengths. To ensure you get the correct length for both your occasion and your look, it is worth checking when choosing your glove. Our gloves are measured in the traditional unit of measurement of button length (BL), which is equal to 1". It starts where the thumb seam meets the wrist, and runs up the arm. Our glove lengths are as follows: 

Wrist length gloves

Emma, 1½  BL (1½")

Imogen, 2 BL (2")

Our shortest gloves, from 1 BL (1") to 3 BL (3"). A wrist length glove adds the finishing touch to your outfit and is a popular choice for a day glove.

Bracelet length gloves

Regina, 5 BL (5")
A bracelet length glove can measure between 5 BL (5") and 8 BL (8") and is the perfect day glove.  

Francesca, 8 BL (8")

Slightly more formal than the 5 BL, an 8 BL glove like Francesca is a sophisticated choice for a day-to-evening shift in wardrobe.

Elbow length gloves


Theodora, 12 BL (12")
Our elbow length gloves measure 12 BL (12") and sit above the elbow - very flattering and perfect for evening occasions.

Opera length gloves

Hermione, 16 BL (16")

Our opera length gloves measure 16 BL (16") and sit above the elbow. They are perfect for opera and evening occasions.
