Oct 12, 2024 by Lvs&Broner

To ensure you get the ideal fit, it’s essential to provide us with your accurate measurements: bust, waist, hip, and barefoot height. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the measurement process and help you choose the right size for your custom dress.

 

Why Custom Sizes Matter

Choosing a custom size offers several advantages. Unlike standard sizes, which can often lead to ill-fitting garments, custom sizing ensures that your dress flatters your unique shape. A well-fitted dress enhances your confidence and allows you to move comfortably.

Essential Measurements for Custom Dresses

1. Bust Measurement

To measure your bust, follow these steps:

  • Stand straight with your arms relaxed at your sides.
  • Use a soft measuring tape and wrap it around the fullest part of your bust.
  • Ensure the tape is parallel to the floor and not too tight or loose.
  • Note the measurement in inches or centimeters.

2. Waist Measurement

To get your waist measurement:

  • Find your natural waistline, which is usually just above your belly button.
  • Wrap the measuring tape around your waist, ensuring it’s snug but not constricting.
  • Breathe normally while taking this measurement for the most accurate result.

3. Hip Measurement

To measure your hips:

  • Stand with your feet together.
  • Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your hips.
  • Ensure the tape is level and comfortable but snug enough to stay in place.

4. Barefoot Height

Your height plays a crucial role in ensuring your dress falls perfectly:

  • Stand against a wall without shoes.
  • Measure from the floor to the top of your head, keeping the tape straight.
  • It’s helpful to have someone assist you for the most accurate measurement.

 

Tips for Accurate Measurements

  • Use a Flexible Measuring Tape: This will help you get a more accurate fit around your body’s curves.
  • Get Help: Having a friend or family member assist you can make the measuring process easier and more precise.
  • Wear Minimal Clothing: For the most accurate measurements, wear fitted clothing or measure over undergarments.
  • Double-Check: It’s always a good idea to measure twice to ensure accuracy.
