Outerwear Design Considerations:

How to Take Accurate Measurements

Chest/Bust

Measure around the fullest part of the chest, under the arms, keeping the tape level and snug but not tight.

Waist

Measure around the natural waistline, which is the narrowest part of the torso.

Height/Length

Measure from the highest point of the shoulder to the desired hem length.

Sleeve Length

Measure from the shoulder point to the wrist bone with arm slightly bent.

Professional Measurement Tips:

  • Always use a flexible measuring tape
  • Take measurements over light clothing or undergarments
  • Keep the tape parallel to the floor for horizontal measurements
  • Record measurements in centimeters for accuracy
  • Take multiple measurements to ensure consistency
