Before shopping for your perfect dress online, it is crucial you measure yourself.

It may look picture perfect on our model, however not all of our body types are the same. So if you want it to look striking on you, take accurate measurements.

Here’s how:

To determine your body measurements use the following tips:

-- Bust  Use a cloth measuring tape and bring it around your back and across the fullest part of the chest.
    Your arms should be relaxed. Measure the fullest part of your chest OVER the bra cup.

-- Waist  Bring the tape 1 inch above your belly button.
   Be sure not to suck in your stomach, and leave one finger under the tape so that you are able to breathe in your dress.

-- Hip Measure yourself with your feet close together, bring the tape around the widest part of your hips, right across the hip bone.

Please consider that even with accurate measurements, you may still need to alter the dress.

If you're unsure, we recommend you order a dress 1 size larger then your size, that way if alterations need to be made, they are able to alter the dress according to your body size.

If however if you get a dress that is a little too tight, you will have more problems letting it out.

We suggest having a professional seamstress, family member, or friend take your measurements for the best results. We do not recommend customers take their measurements - they will can be wrong easily.
