I want to first thank my customers for raising this very real issue of clothes measurements when buying from online shops. Absolutely valid point - how to make sure that the clothes that you buy from online shops fit you?
Nobody wants to waste their $$ for buying something that doesn't fit. Me neither. And I've been wondering how to help my customers to minimise the risks.
So, here's how we do it. Since we can't measure ourselves by ourselves, we use our clothes.
For more accurate measurements, use clothes similar to the ones that you intend to buy. So, if you would like to buy a t-shirt, then, use your current t-shirt as the gauge. If you're thinking of getting a non-elastic piece of clothing, use similar fabric as the gauge.
It just take 3 simple steps:
Step 1: Take out pieces of clothing that you think fit you very well, and you really like the fit. Choose one t-shirt, one dress and a pair of shorts.
Step 2: Lie the clothes flat, either on the floor or on the bed. The best is to choose (if possible), materials that will stay quite still. Flimsy materials like silk and satin are harder to lie flat nicely. Step 3: Take a measuring tape and measure the relevant parts of the clothings. These are the measurements that you will see on Le Chic Boutique clothings as well:
