Advanced Fit Technology™ | Scarlett & Jo US
Engineered for curves. Not adapted from them.
Most plus-size fashion begins with a standard pattern and scales it up. Scarlett & Jo does not.
Advanced Fit Technology™ was developed because plus-size women were being asked to compromise. For more than ten years Scarlett & Jo has refined a system designed specifically for curves rather than adapted from smaller-size patterns. The result is a fit methodology validated by thousands of real customers and over 10,500 reviews.
Our proprietary design and construction system was built from the ground up for plus-size proportions. Every dress in the Scarlett & Jo collection is developed using this system - meaning the bust-to-waist ratio, the hip allowance, the internal support structure, and the fabric behaviour are all calculated for a size 12–32 body, not approximated from a size 10 template.
The result is a dress that fits the way a dress should: without gaping at the back, without pulling across the bust, without bunching at the waist, and without the wearer spending the day adjusting it.
The Three Technologies
POWERFIT™ Mesh
POWERFIT™ is a fabric technology that combines elastane with traditionally spun fibres to create an intimate blend, delivering stretch with stability. The fabric moves with the body without losing its shape - providing excellent body, retention stability, and comfort throughout the day. POWERFIT™ is the foundation of the Advanced Fit Technology™ system: it enables the dress to accommodate the natural movement of a plus-size body while maintaining the structured silhouette of a tailored garment.
MagicBand™
The MagicBand™ is an integrated stretch cummerbund sewn directly into the construction of the dress. It is not a removable accessory or an afterthought - it is a permanent, structural element of the garment, designed to gently cinch and shape the waist, define the silhouette, and provide built-in support without the need for shapewear. The MagicBand™ works in combination with POWERFIT™ Mesh to create a dress that supports the body from within. It acts as a comfortable alternative to traditional shapewear, specifically engineered to support larger cup sizes without pulling or restricting.
Curve-Specific Construction
Beyond fabric technology, Advanced Fit Technology™ encompasses the entire construction process. Scarlett & Jo dresses are fit-tested across the full size range - not just at a single size and graded up. Seam placement, dart positioning, internal boning, lining weight, and hem length are all calibrated for the proportional differences between a size 12 and a size 32 body. This is why our dresses fit consistently across the range, and why customers who discover Scarlett & Jo tend to return. Explore our style guides by body shape →
Proven by Customers
Advanced Fit Technology™ is not a marketing claim. It is a measurable outcome.
Scarlett & Jo has received over 10,500 verified customer reviews, rated 4.6 out of 5. These reviews are submitted at the point of purchase by real customers, many of whom include photographs of themselves wearing the dress. The consistency of the fit feedback across the size range - from size 12 to size 32 - is the clearest evidence that the technology works as designed.
Customers consistently describe the same experience: the dress fits without adjustment, supports without restriction, and looks the way it looked in the product image. That consistency, across thousands of different body shapes and sizes, is what Advanced Fit Technology™ is designed to deliver.
