How to Measure Yourself Accurately

Use a soft measuring tape and stand in front of a mirror if possible. Keep the tape flat against your body, level all the way around, and snug but never tight. For the best results, wear light clothing or measure directly on your skin.

1. Chest Measurement

Measure around the fullest part of the chest, just under the arms and across the shoulder blades.

How to do it:

• Stand up straight with your arms relaxed at your sides.
• Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest.
• Make sure the tape goes across the back and under the arms.
• Keep the tape parallel to the floor.
• The tape should sit comfortably against the body without digging in.

Tip:
Do not puff out your chest or hold your breath. Breathe normally for the most accurate result.

2. Bust Measurement

Measure around the fullest part of the bust, keeping the tape level across the back.

How to do it:

• Stand naturally and relax your shoulders.
• Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust.
• Make sure the tape stays level from the front to the back.
• Keep it comfortably snug, but not so tight that it compresses the bust.

Tip:
If you wear a bra regularly, measure while wearing the type of bra you plan to wear with the item. This can help give a more realistic fit.

3. Waist Measurement

This is used for items that sit at or below the waist, such as pants, skirts, and some corsets.

How to do it:

• Find your natural waist, which is usually the narrowest part of your torso.
• This is often just above the belly button and below the ribs.
• Wrap the tape around this area.
• Keep the tape parallel to the ground and snug, but not tight.
• Stand straight and relaxed while measuring.

Tip:
Do not suck in your stomach. Let your body stay in a natural position.
