Taking Measurements

Taking measurements can be intimidating, and it is a good idea to enlist a friend to help you if possible.  Always measure twice, and please take a moment to view the how-to video below.  I may need additional measurements, depending on your design.  Don't worry, we will discuss measurements during our consultation.

Tips:

When measuring circumference, make sure the measuring tape is parallel to the floor.

Take your hip measurement at the fullest part of your bottom.

Take your waist measurement at the smallest part of your natural waist.

Do not allow extra room in your measurements.

Hold the tape firmly, but don't pull tight.

Measure in front of a mirror, if possible.

 It's a good idea to measure in your undergarments.
