How to Measure |
|
|
We recommend you have the professional seamstress who will alter your gown take your measurements for you When you place your order, we show you the size charts from the manufacturer. If you're right on the edge of two sizes, order the larger. You order your gown to fit your largest measurement size. So if your bust equals a size 14, your waist a size 12 and your hips a 12, you would order the 14. Gown sizes may be, and often are, very different than regular clothing. TAKE YOUR OWN MEASUREMENTS - THEY WILL BE WRONG! But just in case. Measure the following |
|
 |
Bust Not your bra size! Take the tape around your back and bring it across your nipple line (typically the fullest part of the breast). Your arms should be relaxed, down at your sides |
| Waist This is the smallest part of your waist. Typically it's an inch or so above your belly button |
|
| Hip This is the widest part of your hips, across the hip bone |
|
| Hollow to Hem This is a standard industry term. Start the tape at the hollow at the base of your neck and measure down to where you want the hem. If your skirt will be full, be sure to measure out at an angle to allow for the fullness. Also, be sure you are wearing the same height heel you'll wear on your wedding day. |
