How IAF Works
You’ve probably heard it before: “If you want clothes that fit just right, you’ve got to go custom.”
But custom usually means shelling out $185+ for a single top, waiting 6–8 weeks, and crossing your fingers that it’s worth the splurge.
At It Actually Fits, we believe women with dwarfism deserve better.
✂️ The Custom Feel — Without the Custom Price Tag
Let’s be real: Custom clothing costs so much because you’re paying for one single garment to be made just for you. That means custom design, custom patterns, custom sewing — all for one piece. It adds up fast.
At It Actually Fits, we flip that model on its head.
You’re still getting a custom-feel piece — made specifically for women with dwarfism — but we produce in small batches, not one-off orders. That means:
- You’re not footing the bill for a one-and-done garment
- We can keep the price way more affordable
- Quality stays high because we don’t mass-produce
It’s like getting the benefits of custom clothing without the custom price tag or the long wait. Win-win.
💸 Let’s Talk Price (Because We Know You’re Wondering)

You’re just not overpaying for it. 😉
How to Order from IAF
Ordering from IAF is simple — and we mean actually simple.
Step 1: Find your IAF Size
We use a unique sizing system built around your height and your body’s actual proportions.
No more guessing between “XS Petite” or “M Regular” that still ends up needing alterations.
Use our Size Chart to find your IAF size based on your:
- Height (determines if you’re Petite, Standard, or Tall)
- Waist, hips, bust, arms, inseam (determines if you’re Small, Medium, or Large)

Or if you want a personalized virtual fit, just email lisa@itactuallyfits.com with your body measurements and garment you would like to see (at the moment, the technology to do this doesn't work with either the dress or skirt. My apologies and hopefully it can in the future!)
Step 2: Shop Your Way
Pick what speaks to you — tees, pants, jackets, skirts. It’s all made for your proportions from the start.
No tailoring. No “maybe I can roll the sleeves.”
Step 3: Enjoy the Fit

❤️ It’s Not Just About the Fit…
Along with the custom-feel fit you’ve been dreaming of, you’re also getting reassurance:
- That you won’t hate how you look wearing our clothes — because they’re actually made for your body.

No settling. No stress. No “maybe this will work if roll the sleeves or hem the pants”
Just clothes that actually fit — and a brand that actually gets it.
