IMPORTANT!
We highly recommend that you have your
measurements taken by a professional dressmaker or seamstress,
so that your measurements are exact.
This will avoid any disappointment of a gown not fitting you
properly.
It will be your responsibility to provide us with the correct
measurements as these will be used to manufacture your gown.
Please note - Gowns that are made from the wrong measurements
supplied by you cannot be returned.
TIPS - DO NOT WRAP THE TAPE TOO TIGHTLY AROUND YOU, YOU WANT
TO BE COMFORTABLE SO JUST LOOSEN THE TAPE A LITTLE.
DON'T FORGET THAT YOU WILL NEED TO SIT IN YOUR GOWN!

is the smallest part of your waist. Typically it's an inch or
so above your belly button. Also known as the natural

taken approximately 7 inches below the natural waistline. This
