How To Measure Your Body?

1. Measure around the fullest part of the bust and across the shoulder blades of your back. When measuring the bust for women's underwear and swimwear, follow the bra measuring guidelines.
2. Relaxed shoulders, measure across the widest part of your shoulders.
3. Measure at the natural waistline, just above the hip bone. Remember - women's fashion trousers will have bigger waist measurement, as they are low rise and do not sit on the natural waistline.
4. With your feet approximately 6" apart, measure around the widest part of your hip.
5. Choose a clothing item with the preferred length and measure from the top to the bottom. For skirts, measure from the natural waistline in a straight line. For dresses, measure from the centre back neck in a straight line.
