BUST

Wear the bra you will be wearing with the dress,and pull the tape across the fullest part of the bust.


WAIST

Pull tape across the narrowest part (about 1'' above your belly button) and keep tape slightly loose to allow for beathing room. but if you have big belly, please give us measurements of belly in the note too.


HIP

Stand straight and pull tape across the widest part of the hips and rear, if butt is bigger than hip, please give us butt too.


Hollow to Hem

Stand up straight and measure from the the center of the collarbone,down to where the hem of the dress should hit(excluding any train).

Note: To make sure you are ordering the perfect size, please do check our size chart before ordering. Please note: only error between your real measurements of all parts and standard size less than 1'', then dresses can fit well otherwise it's better choose custom size.
Please don't wear tights or other clothing when you measure your selves, that would get your measurements even more bigger, as you will not wear clothing inside when you wear the dress.
