Lolibrary Attribute Guide
There are currently 30 active possible attribute fields available on Lolibrary, so we've created a handy guide you can use both for item research and entry creation purposes! For item tags or features, please refer to their respective guide pages: Tag Guide | Feature Guide
Garment Measurements
Official measurements from the brand’s website. Included “cm” if it’s in cm. Use the ‘ or “ notation for inches / feet for American brands that give their measurements in inches.
If an measurement is a range, denote it with a dash between the two measurements like:
82cm - 102cm
If an item comes in multiple sizes, you can enter measurements like:
S: 38cm | M: 40cm | L: 42cm
Or:
S: 38cm / M: 40cm / L: 42cm
