Body Measurement for Ladies

What is Body Measurement?

8
 Body measurement refers to the measurements of the actual person or people who
will wear the customized garment. These are different from garment measurements and
can be taken manually or purchased from different body data services.

The dress you wear should fit well. Proper fit depends greatly upon accurate body
measurements. No matter how expensive the dress material is. If the dress does not fit well,
you will not look at your best nor feel comfortable in it. On the other hand, the dress material
maybe inexpensive, but if the dress fits you well, you will not only feel comfortable but will
also look good in it.

Measurements Needed for a Blouse:

Shoulder Upper Arm Girth

Figure Lower Arm Girth
Apex Height Sleeve Length
Apex Distance Sleeve Width
Bust Blouse Length
Chest Hip Measure
Across Back -First Hip
Waist Measure -Second hip

Guidelines for taking body measurements

 The person being measured should stand straight, on both feet.

 Wear fitted clothes when measuring and avoid wearing no baggy/ bulky clothes. This
can increase the measurements.
 Choose a good and accurate tape measure. Keep it level (parallel to the ground) all the
time you are taking horizontal measures
 Get another person to take the measurements, taking your own body measurement is
not advisable.

and with enough slack in tape to just slide 2 fingers under tape.
