Bust
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your bust, passing it under your arms and across your shoulder blades. Keep your arms relaxed at your sides and make sure the tape stays level around your back.

Women’s apparel size guide
Take a few body measurements to help compare with a garment’s own size information. This guide explains where to measure; it does not assign measurements to apparel sizes.
Before you measure
Use a flexible, non-stretch tape and wear light, close-fitting clothing. Stand naturally and breathe normally. Keep the tape level and comfortably snug all the way around without pressing into your skin. Record the unit shown on the tape and use that same unit when comparing measurements.
Where to measure
Natural waist
Find your natural waist, usually the crease where your torso bends when you lean to one side. Measure around that point without pulling your stomach in; keep the tape comfortably snug while you breathe normally.
Hips and seat
Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat. Check that the tape is level all the way around before recording the measurement.
