How to take your measurements correctly ?

We always recommend having a professional take your measurements for the best results!

• Never measure over your clothing. Your dress size measurements should be taken while wearing underwear similar to the ones you will wear with your gown. Wear an unpadded bra (your dress will have a built-in bra)
  
• Measurements must be made per the instructions without any allowance or extra margin because allowances will be made by our tailors.
