1. Bust
Measure the fullest part of the bust around the center. Pull the tape measure snuggly. Make sure the tape measure is straight and smooth all the way around.

2. Waist
Your waist measurement is taken at the very smallest part of your waistline, which is usually a few inches above the belly button. Pull the tape measure snuggly. Do not hold it loosely.

3. Hip
This measurement is taken around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks. Again, pull the tape measure snuggly, and make sure that it is straight and smooth all the way around.

4. Length
Hollow to Hem (if needed) is a length measurement that is taken from the hollow in your neck to the floor in the shoes you will be wearing. The hollow is a small indent where your collar bones meet.
