Size Guide

AKIMS Size Guide

Finding your perfect fit is everything. Use this guide to choose the right size for sculpting, support, and all-day comfort.


How to Measure

Use a soft measuring tape and measure directly on your skin (not over clothing):

  • Bust — measure around the fullest part of your chest
  • Waist — measure around the narrowest part of your torso, usually 2–3 cm above your navel
  • Hips — measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat
  • Thigh — measure around the fullest part of one thigh

Corset & Waist Trainer Sizing

For corsets and waist trainers, size down 10–15 cm from your natural waist measurement for optimal cinching effect.

Size Natural Waist (cm) Corset Waist (cm)
S 67–72 55–60
M 73–78 61–66
L 79–84 67–72

2XL 92–98 79–84
3XL 99–105 85–90
4XL 106–112 91–96

Colombian Faja Sizing

Fajas are compression garments — they should feel firm but not painful. If you're between sizes, size up for everyday wear or size down for post-surgical use.

Size Waist (cm) Hips (cm)
M 68–73 94–99
L 74–79 100–105
XL 80–86 106–112
2XL 87–93 113–119
3XL 94–100 120–126

Fit Tips

  • Shapewear should feel snug but allow normal breathing
  • For post-surgical fajas, consult your surgeon for sizing recommendations
  • When in doubt, size up — you can always adjust straps and closures
  • The free-size Waist Trainer Band fits most waist sizes 60–100 cm
