Measure your size - Women

Here is a good guide on how to take your measurements for women's clothing. To get the right size, measure carefully, and update your measurements regularly.

When you have your correct measurements, you can convert them into US sizes.

Take your measurements

To find your correct size, use a tape measure, and check these measurements:

Bust
Measure under your armpits, around your shoulder blades, and over the fullest part of your bust. Don't pull the tape measure too hard.
For fitting a bra, you also need the measurement just under your bust.

Waist
Measure around your natural waistline. This is the narrow part of your waist, approx. an inch above your navel. Relax and breath out before you measure.

Hip
The hip should be measured around its fullest part (about 8 inch. below your waist).

Inseam
This is the measurement from your ankle to your groin. This can also be measured on a pair of trousers with the proper length.
