Each design is hand painted with molten beeswax and dyed in a series of layers before being boiled clean.  The batik image becomes part of the fiber itself.  They will not change in shape or color.  

These particular shirts were sewn by Hanes before I applied the batik process.  They taper in ever so slightly at the waist and bell out from there. 

These approximate measurements were taken with the top laying flat and not stretched.  

 2X

• Bust: 22.5"
• Under the arm to the hem: 17
• Width at the center of the waist: 22" 
• Width of bottom hem at the hips: 24"

This top is preshrunk - machine wash and dry for best results.
