How to Take Body Measurements

  • Chest

    Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under your arms and across your shoulder blades. Make sure the tape measure is level and not too tight. 

    IMPORTANT: Measure in your bra to avoid size mismatch issues in the future.

  • Waist

    Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waist, usually near your belly button. Make sure the tape measure is level and not too tight.

  • Skirt length

    Measure from the top of your waistband to the desired length of the skirt.

  • Back neck-to-waist

    Measure from the most prominent bone at the base of your neck, straight down to your natural waistline.

  • Front neck-to-waist

    Measure from the most prominent bone at the base of your neck, straight down to your natural waistline.

  • Biceps

    To measure your biceps, bend your arm at a 90-degree angle and wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of your upper arm. Make sure the tape measure is level and not too tight or too loose.

  • Sleeve length

    To measure the length of your sleeve, bend your arm at a 90-degree angle and measure from the beginning of the hand bone to the wrist bone.
