The below is just a guideThe below is just a guide. We recommend that whenever possible you get a qualified seamstress to measure your wedding dress size. Always get someone else to make the measurements for you: measuring yourself will give inaccurate numbers and could lead to disappointment. Measure with undergarments similar to those you will wear with your dress; do not measure over other clothing.

Bust :Not bra size!Take the tape around your back and bring it across the fullest part of your bust. Your arms should be relaxed,down at your sides.You must wear a bra when takng this measurement.

Waist:This is the smallest part of your waist.Typically it's an inch or so above your belly button.Also know as the natural waistline.

Hips :This is the widest part of your hips,across the hipbone.Measurement is taken approximately 7 inches below the natural waistine. This measurement is not needed for full gowns.

Hollow to Hem :Not bra size!Take the tape around your back and bring it across the fullest part of your bust. Your arms should be relaxed,down at your sides.You must wear a bra when takng this measurement.

If a Wedding is in your future, and you are stumped about a wedding dress, then at least know your measurements, so that you can go window shopping or shop online. More and more stores are going online, and its important that you have an idea of your measurements before you order. You don't want to be wasting too much time, with a back and forth mail order. Give yourself plenty of time to do a search, but for right now, you need to figure out your measurements and size.
