Before we begin, you will need to have the following : A measuring tape
When taking these measurements, please make sure to wear tight fitting clothing to ensure accuracy.
STEP 1, BUST:
Please be aware that this is not your bra size. When taking this measurement, take your tape, and wrap it around your back, bringing it around to the fullest part of your bust. When you’re taking this measurement, make sure that your arms are hanging loosely by your side. Please be sure to wear a bra when taking your measurement. As otherwise your garment maybe a little bit too tight around the chest.
STEP 2, WAIST:
To measure the waist, take the tape, and wrap it around the smallest part of your waist. Typically, this is about one inch above your belly button. When taking this measurement, keep the tape a little bit loose to allow for breathing room.
STEP 3, HIPS:
The hip measurement spans across the widest part of your hips. To start, take your tape, and wrap it around the back, bringing it down until it brushes across both hip bones. Typically, this will be about seven inches below your natural waistline which is at the narrowest part of your waist.
STEP 4, HOLLOW TO FLOOR
The Hollow to Floor measurement is taken from the hollow at the base of your neck between your collarbones to the floor. When taking this measurement make sure you are standing upright, don’t wear any shoes and keep your feet close together.
STEP 5, HOLLOW TO HEMLINE
Hollow to hemline is the distance from the hollow at the base of your throat to your hemline. When taking this measurement, make sure you are standing upright, back straight. Please make sure when you are taking this measurement to take it accurately. As it will affect the length of your dress.
STEP 6, SHOULDER
For the shoulder measurement, you have to measure from the edge of one shoulder to the other. To start, rotate your arm a little, and you will be able to find the spot where your arm and shoulder meet. Start from there, and go in a straight line to the other end.
STEP 7, ARM LENGTH
To measure arm length, simply measure from your shoulder to your wrist. To start, rotate your arm a little, to find the spot where your shoulder and arm meet. From there, simply measure downwards and keep your arm loose and relaxed by your side.
STEP 8, ARMSCYE:
Measuring your Armscye is relatively simple. Just take your tape, and wrap it around the fullest part of your upper arm. When taking this measurement, it’s important to make sure it’s not too loose or too tight as it affects your sleeve size.
STEP 9, ARM:
Take the arm measurement, requires your arm to be in a particular position. First, bend your arm 90 degrees at the elbow and the place your hand on your hip. To start measuring, take the tape and place it at the back of your neck, measure over your shoulder to your elbow, and from the elbow to the wrist. The total length will be the arm measurement.
