Taking measurements

OUR TIPS

Take your measurements when wearing only underwear. Ask someone to help you! You will need at least two measuring tapes. Wrap a wide, non-stretch tape around your waist to mark your waist level. Stand up straight and relaxed.

LENGTH MEASUREMENTS

Each person has their own individual shape, size and height. When sewing for yourself, it is good to know your measurements, to help achieve a perfect fit. The following illustrations show how and where to take your measurements.

Back length		Body depth		Bust depth		Front waist length
