    How to measure

    Please review the following guidelines in regards to measurements and picking your size:

    1) USE A PROFESSIONAL

    If possible try and have your measurements taken by a seamstress or tailor. If you do not have access, ask someone who is familiar with sewing. Please do not measure yourself.

    2) WHAT TO WEAR WHEN MEASURING

    Measurements can be taken over your regular thin clothing. Don't measure over real bulky sweaters, sweatpants or layers of clothing.

    Remember - very important !!! Hold tape with thumb/index finger starting at the beginning of the tape, 0 inches, not starting at 60 inches mark. It is an easy mistake to make and you measurements will be wrong.

    Bust Measurement 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 Measurement This is the smallest part of your waist. Typically it's an inch or so above your belly button.

    Hip Measurement Around hips at fullest point, taking note of how far down from the waist that you are measuring

    Shoulder To nipple: Start the tape at your shoulder and measure down to your nipple. 
    Shoulder To Waist: Start the tape at your shoulder and measure down to your waist line, Let the tape across your bust.
