• A tailor’s measuring tape
• A mirror
• Notepad to record your measurements
• A buddy if possible

• Wear snug-fitting clothing, ideally undergarments (this will ensure accurate measurements as baggy clothing can lead to inaccuracies)

• Stand up straight in front of a mirror with your feet together and arms relaxed at your sides. Good posture ensures accurate measurements.

• Wrap the measuring tape around your chest or bust at the widest area without pulling too tight nor letting the tape sag. See level shown on the diagram

• Wrap the measuring tape around your natural waistline (typically the narrowest part of your torso) To locate it, bend to one side; the crease that forms is usually your natural waistline.
  Height

• Stand straight against a wall with your heels together and feet flat on the floor
• Mark the wall with a pencil or painters tape at the level of the highest point of your head

Repeat for Accuracy: If you are unsure about the accuracy, measure two or three times and take an average.
