Measure around the fullest part of your bust with the bra you’ll wear. Keep the tape level and snug. (Bra size ≠ bust measurement.)

3. HIPS

Measure around the widest part of your hips (about 9 inches below your waist) while standing relaxed.

4. HOLLOW-TO-HEM

Measure from the center of your collarbone to the floor while wearing similar-height shoes. Extra length may still need hemming.
