Measuring Guide
Measuring Guide
Be sure to measure yourself according to our guidelines with a soft measuring tape (not a ruler or construction measuring tape), found on our Size Chart page(here for US customers and here for CA customers).
We recommend that you add 0.25 to 0.5 inches to your bust, waist, and hip measurements just to give yourself some room for comfort. We do not recommend decreasing your measurements if you are planning to lose weight.
Furthermore, it's not get one size up,then dress can fit well, only error between your real measurements and measurements of dress, then dress can fit well.
Because we are making the dress to your measurements and it is non-returnable, we never recommend ordering a custom size using the measurements of a standard size dress.
This is because standard sizing has some ease built in for comfort while custom sizing is made exactly as ordered. Further, since we’re asking for your height and hollow to floor measurements, the overall fit and proportions of the dress will change. This means the waistline, bustline, and hemline may be higher or lower depending on the measurements.
Additional Helpful Information:
As custom sizing is basic, we cannot change the proportions of the dress. If you are concerned about where the waistline will hit on your torso, styles with empire waistlines may be safer as they are fitted at the under bust instead of the waist.
You don’t need to be professionally measured but if you would like to, be sure to have them read our guidelines as seamstresses are trained to take measurements a bit differently.
Custom sizing is not the same as custom design. If you need a dress to be shorter or longer than advertised, unfortunately this just isn't something we can do. That means, we can't make a floor-length dress into a knee-length or make a knee-length dress into a floor-length design.
Never change your height and hollow to floor if you think this will simply make your dress a bit shorter or longer. The height and hollow to floor are used to determine where the hemline, neckline, and waistline should fall and changing either of these can end up moving the waistline of your dress up below your neck.
Please convert your height measurement to inches at checkout. For example, if you are 5'6" you will put your height as 66 inches and NOT 56 inches.
