Measurement tips
Here’s how to take your measurements
Wear undergarments when taking your measurements.
Use a flexible tailor’s measuring tape.
Do not take your measurements alone — a second person is required.
Stand naturally with your feet together, and position the measuring tape around your body without feeling tight.
Bust measurement
Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your bust, making sure it stays straight across your back. Write down this measurement.
Waist measurement
Measure around the narrowest part of your waist, usually just above your belly button. Keep the tape snug but not tight.
Hip measurement
Wrap the tape around the widest part of your hips and buttocks. Make sure the tape is parallel to the floor.
