You're selling maternity as 'comfortable and chic' — but returns say it isn't.
The hidden risk
In maternity, fit drift between size S and XL quietly breaks the customer promise. A pregnancy body moves through sizes fast — a customer who catches fit inconsistency never reorders. Most suppliers grade quickly and check slowly.
How to judge
Pull three consecutive sizes of the same style and put them on bodies. The fit shape should feel like a smooth slope, not a step change.
What the supplier must provide
A grading report showing the ease curves across sizes — not just the measurements table.
How DONGFAN handles it
DONGFAN tests fit across the size run with body-shape forms specific to maternity, so ease is shaped where pregnant bodies need it — not where a generic block distributes it.
Buyer checklist
- Test fit across three consecutive sizes
- Request grading report with ease curves
- Check side seam / belly curve continuity
- Pull in-wash consistency after first batch
- Audit returns for fit-driven complaints
- Treat fit as brand infrastructure
