How to Measure
* Measure over undergarments.
* Keep tape measure level and close, not tight.
* If possible, have someone else measure you - it's more accurate.
Bust: Wearing your usual bra, with arms relaxed at your sides, measure the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor, under the armhole and around your back about where your bra strap is.
Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your torso at your natural waistline. To find your natural waistline, bend to one side. There will usually be a crease where you bend. Often it is just below your ribcage. That's your natural waistline. Don't worry since this may seem higher than where you actually wear your skirts. Keep the tape measure parallel to the floor as you measure all the way around your torso.
Hips: Standing with heels together, measure around your body at the broadest part of your hips. This will include the fullest part of your backside too and should be just about where your legs meets your torso. (approximately 8" below natural waistline.)
Length: Measure from top of shoulder (where shoulder seam would be) , to your desired length for the dress to end.

Please consider that even with accurate measurements, you may still need to alter the piece you order. Lets face it, no one is the perfect model size, that means prom dresses will most likely need some alterations. It’s a necessary part of purchasing any dress if you want it to look perfect on you. You may not like the way it hugs your hips, or the way it shows the silhouette of your body. If you measure tight to the skin and plan on the dress being too small, it will be. If you measure and add anything, the dress will be too big. Make sure you take the PROPER measurements.
