Where to Measure
Accurate measurements are essential for selecting the right size in vintage evening dresses. Below are guidelines for measuring your hips, waist, and bust effectively.
Hips: To measure your hips, stand with your feet together and wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your hips, ensuring the tape is parallel to the floor.
Waist: For your waist measurement, locate the natural waistline, which is typically above your belly button and below your ribcage, and measure around this area while keeping the tape snug but not tight.
Bust: To measure your bust, wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your bust, ensuring that the tape is level across your back and not too tight.
Following these measurement techniques will help ensure a better fit when selecting vintage evening dresses, allowing for a more flattering silhouette and enhanced comfort during wear.
