How to Take Your Measurements
A step-by-step guide to measuring accurately for custom-fit orders.
Please follow this guide carefully to ensure the best possible fit. We strongly recommend watching the video tutorial before taking your measurements.
Before You Measure
Use the right tools
Use a soft measuring tape for accuracy. Avoid using rulers or stiff measuring tools. You can get the one we use here for most accuracy.
Measure in inches
All measurements should be taken and submitted in inches.
Get help if possible
Taking measurements with the help of another person will give you more accurate results.
Wear the right undergarments
For blouse measurements, wear the bra you plan to use with the outfit.
If you want padding added, measure using an unlined or lightly padded bra.
Account for footwear
For lehenga measurements, wear the heels you plan to use (if any) to ensure the correct length.
Use a reference garment (optional but recommended)
If you already own a lehenga or skirt with a length you like, you can measure from the waist to the hem and use that as your reference.
Double-check before submitting
Custom-fit garments are made based on the measurements you provide. Please review all measurements carefully before placing your order.
