HOW TO TAKE YOUR MEASUREMENTS
Taking Measurements - Please refer to the image guide on the right of this page.
BUST - The bust measurement is taken across the fullest part of your bust point/nipple line. If you plan on wearing stick-on bra cups or a oush up bra we recommend wearing this when taking your measurement.
UNDER BUST/BAND– Taken directly under the bust & towards the top of ribcage.
WAIST - The waist measurement is taken at the smallest part of your torso. Keep the tape taught against your waist and allow for a small breath. If you breath in our out too deeply the waist could end up being too loose or tight so ensure you feel comfortable when taking this measurement.
HIGH HIP – The high hip is taken 10cm down from the true waist, keeping the tape measure parallel to the floor.
LOW HIP – The low hip is taken 20-22cm down from the waist, keeping the tape measure parallel to the floor. Please note that this measurement may not be at your widest part, often women are wider slightly lower down.
BICEP – Taken around the bicep – this is only needed for gowns with a sleeve.
WRIST - Taken around the smallest part of your arm at the wrist point. This is only needed for gowns with a sleeve.
LENGTH - All of our sample gowns measure 120-123cmcm from the ‘true’ waist to floor at the Centre Front. We highly recommend when taking this measurement you do so in the heels/shoes you plan on wearing on your wedding day.
*As all our gowns are hand made we allow for a +/- tolerance of 1.5cm-2cm from the measurement guide.
