Your Key Measurements

Please note down the following to help us advise on size and fit: bust, waist, hip, bra size, height (without heels) and waist to floor (with heels).

How to Measure

Bust - Horizontal, over the highest point of your bust

Waist - The smallest part of your torso

Hip - The widest part of your buttocks

CF Neck to Waist - From between your collarbones to the centre front waist

Nape to Waist - From the base of your neck to the centre back waistline

Bicep - The widest part of your top arm

Waist to Floor - The length from your waist to the floor, with and without heels.

Notes

If you are uncertain, please enquire for advice by submitting your measurements. If your size spreads over 2-3 sizes, choose the biggest, though you may need to have it altered. We would recommend a custom order. These are not garment measurements.

For made-to-measure or custom orders, please also email us a full-length photo of yourself in fitted gym wear, face not shown. This helps us assess your bust size and body shape accurately before we cut your pattern.
