How to Measure Yourself

Tips
– While taking measurements, always keep the measuring tape parallel to the ground.
– It’s always best to ask someone else to take your measurements.

– BUST: Measured around the fullest part of the bust. Make sure to go under your arms, not around them!
WAIST: Measured around the natural waistline, about the height of the belly button is usually a good guideline.
HIPS: Measured around the fullest part of the hips. Make sure to stand with your feet together.
LENGTH: This measurement is for the actual dress/coat/jacket length. Measure from the shoulder-neck joint (high point of shoulder) to where you want to keep hemline of the dress/coat/jacket.
