measurements

How to take your measurements properly?

You need:

  • someone to help (e.g. a friend, family member, etc.)
  • tape measure (you could buy it in a haberdashery shop) or a paper measuring tape (you can usually get it for free in a diy shop)
  • fitted non-padded bra (for both traditional and corset measurements, measurements should be taken in bra)
  • tight shirt (you can also wear only underwear while taking measurements)
  • a sheet of paper and a pen to write down your measurements
  • a cord/string or narrow trouser belt
