Online clothing shopping websites often provide specific measurements for customers to determine if the product will fit them correctly. As a frequent online clothing shopper, it’s essential to know how to measure your body accurately. Follow these simple instructions to confidently buy clothes that fit your body size when you can’t try them on directly.
You will need:
- Tape measure (like the one used by tailors)
- Bra (for more accurate measurements)
- Pen and paper
1. Sleeve length
To measure sleeve length accurately, start from the shoulder and measure down to the desired length of the sleeve.
2. Bust measurement
To measure the bust accurately, drop your arms and place the tape measure around the fullest part of your bust. It’s recommended to have someone else measure you for the most precise results. Make sure you wear a bra before measuring to ensure comfort and prevent clothes from being too tight in the bust area.
3. Second length of pants (seam inside the finished pants)
Measure the length from the waist down by placing the tape measure at the hip, where the waist is, and extend it to the ground.
4. Hip measurement
To determine the hip measurement, measure the widest part of your body, usually 7cm down from the waist.
5. Measure the shoulder
Place the tape measure from one shoulder to the other shoulder. For winter coats, extend the tape measure outside the shoulder by 1 to 1.5 cm to accommodate layering.
6. Waist measurement
Wrap the tape measure around the smallest part of your waist, which may be the midpoint between the armpit and the bust. It’s recommended to have someone else check your measurement for accuracy, as even a slight twist of your body can affect the measurement.
