To ensure your corset fits perfectly and flatters your figure, it’s important to take accurate body measurements. Use a soft measuring tape, wear a fitted top or no top, and stand naturally, don’t suck in your stomach or adjust your posture unnaturally.
Here are the key measurements you’ll need:
1. Bust Circumference
Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your bust, keeping it level and snug but not tight. Make sure the tape sits straight across your back.
2. Underbust Circumference
Measure just below the bust, where your bra band would sit. Keep the tape comfortably snug and parallel to the floor.
3. Waist Circumference
This is the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above your belly button. Bend slightly to the side—where your skin naturally creases is your true waist. Measure there.
4. Hip Circumference
Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks. This is typically 7–9 inches (18–23 cm) below your natural waist, depending on your height.
5. Waist-to-Underbust Length
Measure the vertical distance from your waist (narrowest point) to your underbust (just under the bust line). Keep the measuring tape straight and close to the body.
✨ Tips for Accurate Measuring:
-
Always measure in front of a mirror or have someone assist you.
-
Don’t pull the tape too tightly—snug but comfortable is key.
-
Take measurements while standing upright, feet together, and breathing naturally.
-
It’s helpful to take each measurement twice to confirm accuracy.
📩 Once you've taken your measurements, double-check and send them exactly as listed to ensure your corset is tailored precisely to your unique shape.
