How to measure
- Bust / Chest
- Wear a well-fitted bra. Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust, straight across the back and parallel to the floor.
- Waist
- Stand relaxed. Measure around your natural waist, the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above the belly button. Snug, not tight.
- Hips
- Feet together. Measure around the widest part of your hips and seat, roughly 8 inches (20 cm) below your waist.
- Across Shoulder
- Measure straight across the back from the edge of one shoulder bone to the other.
- Length
- Dress, shirt, blazer and waistcoat length run from the highest point of the shoulder (next to the neck) straight down. Pant length is the outseam, from waist to hem.
Tip: use a soft measuring tape over light clothing, keep it level and snug but never tight. Need help with sizing? WhatsApp +91 82093 04919 or email support@beyondformals.com.
