Size M: 87-91cm chest
Overlap: 87-88cm provides flexibility

Range Size Consistency Keep similar range sizes across all sizes:

  ✅ Consistent: All sizes have 4-5cm ranges
❌ Inconsistent: Mixed 3cm and 8cm ranges

Realistic Measurements Base ranges on actual garment measurements:

  • Account for fabric stretch
  • Consider fit style (slim, regular, relaxed)
  • Include appropriate ease for comfort

Quality Assurance

Pre-Save Validation

Before saving, SmartSize AI Fit Recommender validates:

  • All required measurements are filled
  • Minimum values are less than maximum values
