Measurement Guide
Perfect fit starts with accurate measurements
Professional Help Recommended
For accuracy and ease of measuring, please ensure that your measurements are taken by someone else. We strongly advise a professional (tailor).
When taking measurements, ensure the tape is level on both the front and back. All measurements should be taken with the tape snug but not tight, allowing for two fingers to pass between the tape and your body, with a little movement from side to side.
