How to measure yourself
Measure yourself in your underwear, with a soft tape, standing and relaxed. Get someone to help with your back: a measurement taken alone is almost always too tight.
- NeckAround the base of the neck, where the collar sits. Slide one finger between the tape and your skin.
- ChestAt the fullest point, arms by your sides, tape level across your back.
- WaistAt the narrowest point, above the navel, without pulling. Breathe normally.
- HipsAt the fullest point of the hips, feet together.
- Inside legFrom the crotch to the floor, barefoot, or on a pair of trousers that fits you well.
- Foot lengthStanding, heel against a wall, on a sheet of paper. Use your longer foot.
Between two sizes, take the larger for a jacket or coat, the smaller for knitwear.
Shoes
Measure your foot at the end of the day, standing, heel against a wall. Use your longer foot: they are never identical.
