How fit works

Most apps rank deals by discount. Tailene ranks them by whether the item will actually fit you. Here's exactly how the fit call on every card is made — and what's measured vs. estimated, so you can trust it.

1 We resolve your real size

If you've entered measurements, we map your chest, waist, and hips onto a size chart to find the size you actually are — not just the letter you usually grab. No measurements yet? We fall back to the size you told us. Bottoms are sized to your widest point (waist or hip), the way a tailor would.

Measured from your body

2 We adjust for how the brand runs

A “medium” isn't a medium everywhere. Some labels run small, some run roomy. We carry a brand-by-brand runs-small/runs-large signal, so if a brand runs small we'll tell you to size up — before you order, not after it arrives.

Estimated from brand reputation

3 We check it's offered in your size

A perfect-fit piece you can't get is no deal. We confirm the item is actually carried in your resolved size, then combine all three signals into a single confidence score. More personal data (measurements beat a stated size) means a more confident call.

4 Coming as we grow

Two things make this sharper over time, and we'd rather be honest that they aren't live yet than fake them: real crowd fit data (“runs small” from thousands of actual buyers, not reputation) and per-brand size charts mapped to your exact measurements. The model is built to fold these in the moment we have enough of them.

Measured comes from your body or the live listing — Estimated is a curated judgment we refine over time. We never invent a fit number.
