HOW TO MEASUREUse a sewing tape measure to measure yourself (a carpenter's tape just won't work).
To achieve an accurate measurement we recommend you take these measurements whilst wearing minimal clothing.
1)Bust:
Measure over the fullest area of your bust. Subtract 1 inch if you are wearing a padded bra.
2)Under bust:
Measure directly under your bust, where the bra strap is located.
3)Hip:
Measure at the fullest part of your hip right around your butt, ensuring the tape is straight.
For maillot/one piece styles.
4)Crotch to under bust:
With your left hand holding metal tip of measuring tape at zero end, hold it against the inseam of your crotch area. With the other hand, measure up to the under bust between the breasts.
For special details like no ribbon behind the neck:
5) neck strap: Please measure from under bust(between the breasts)-around the neck-back to starting point (between the breasts).
For Board shorts:
All measurements should be parallel to the floor, not at an angle.
1) waist:
Measurement should be taken at the smallest part of your torso, it doesn't matter if it's above the belly button.
2) 1st hip:
Measure 4 inches below that, around the torso too.
3) 2nd hip:
This measurement should be taken around the fullest part of the butt.
4) Indicate whether you want the waist line to fall on:
a)high waist (natural waist),
b)Comfort ( 1" below navel),
c)low waist (3" below navel)
5)Side seam:Measure how long you want side seam to be.
6)Hem: Measure how loose you want the thigh to be.
7)Crotch height: Sit on a hard surface, measure from side of natural waist to seat.
