Bust:
Wear an unpadded bra (most dresses will have a built-in bra)
Relax your arms at your sides
Pull the tape measure across the fullest part of your bust
Waist:
Find your natural waistline, usually about 1 inch above your belly button
This is the smallest part of your waist
Keep the tape measure slightly loose to allow for breathing
Dress Length:
Measure barefoot
Stand straight with feet together
Starting from the hollow space between your collarbones, pull the tape measure straight down to the hem
Hips:
About 7 inches below your natural waistline
This is the widest part of your hips
The tape measure should brush across both hip bones
