Saint-Saëns

Saint-Saëns wrote The Carnival of the Animals in 1886 as a private joke, then refused to let it be published in his lifetime, worried it would damage his standing as a serious composer. The one exception was "The Swan". The rest appeared in 1922, after his death. Among the animals: pianists, practising scales, and fossils that quote his own Danse macabre.

how to measure

first things first: grab a shirt you already love the fit of, a measuring tape, and a flat surface. lay the shirt flat, smooth it out, and compare its measurements to the chart.

see the fit guide

length: from the highest point of the shoulder, where it meets the collar, straight down to the hem.
chest: straight across the shirt, 1" below the armholes, from side seam to side seam. it's measured flat, so double it to compare with your own chest.
sleeve: from the center back of the neck, over the shoulder point, to the end of the sleeve (to the end of the cuff on sweatshirts).

All measurements are of the garment laid flat, from our spec sheet. Allow a little tolerance either way.
