1. If you are used to wear underwear under your evening dress, we advise you to take your measurements with your underwear on to ensure that you measure the right bust and hips heights.
2. Stand on bare feet, keep your heels together and your arms alongside your body to avoid any distortion of the measurements.
A. Upper bust circumference: measure around body above the fullest part of bust and across back over the back of your bra, keeping the tape a little tight for strapless dress and halter neck dress.
B. Bust circumference: with the arms relaxed down at sides, measure around the fullest part of bust and straight across back (over the back of your bra), keeping the tape a little loose for comfort and parallel to floor.
C. Under bust circumference: measure around body under the fullest part of bust, for the comfort of your stomach, keep the tape a little loose.
D. Waist circumference: measure around the narrowest part of your waist, keeping the tape a little loose for comfort. Make sure youre not holding your stomach in or wearing restrictive apparel or undergarments when you take the measurement. Leave one finger under the measuring tape so that the tape can be moved.
E. Mid-hip circumference: measure around the upper hip circumference, about 10cm down from your waistline.
F. Hip circumference: stand with heels together, keeping tape straight and parallel to the floor. Measure around fullest part of hips.
G. Shoulder to shoulder / Back: measure from the tip of one shoulder (at the joint where your arm meets your shoulder) across the top of your upper neckline to the tip of your other shoulder.
H. Bust point depth: measure from the base of your neck to your bust point.
I. Bust point width: measure from one of your bust point to another, keep the tape parallel to the floor.
J. Neck edge to waist / front: measure from the base of your neck, over the fullest part of your bust to the waistline.
K. Neck edge to floor / front: measure from the base of your neck, over the fullest part of your bust to the floor without shoes.
L. Height / Back: stand on bare feet keeping your heels together, back to the wall. Measure from top of head to the floor.
