Dress Matalia

Instructions for measuring yourself:

• Bust: Measure it by passing the measuring tape under the armpits and around the chest and shoulder blades.
• Shoulder: Measure from one shoulder to the other in a straight line and so that the measuring tape passes through the back.
• Sleeve: Measure from the shoulder (where the bone ends) to the wrist.
• Length: Place the arm close to the body and measure from shoulder to hip.
• Neck Width: Simply measure around the lowest part of the neck.
• Weight: Once you have this data you can go to the conversion chart and compare your measurements with those of the product you want. Obviously your measurements are not going to be exactly the same as those shown in the table, so you will have to choose the size that best fits the size (XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL etc…).

B – Bottom: Pants, skirts, leggings etc…

This section is applies for those who want to buy clothing for the bottom, whether it's jeans, leggings, skirts, shorts, ski pants etc.

Instructions to measure yourself:

As we have said before, it is easier if someone helps you to take note of the measurements.

• Waist: Measure around the height where you normally wear your pants, do not tighten the tape too much, in fact you might want to put a finger between the measuring tape and your body.
• Hip: Measure around the widest part of the hip.
• Thigh: Measure around the widest part of the thigh.
• Length: Measure from hip to below the ankle.

Now that you have all your measurements you can go to the conversion chart and see which size equals your measurements. Like we said before, don't be afraid if your measurements are not exactly the same as those on the chart, we all have different bodies, simply choose the size (XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL etc…) that comes closest to your measurements.

C – Dresses: Long, party, etc…

The sizes of dresses are a mixture between the measurements of clothes for the top part and the measurements for the bottom part.

Instructions for measuring yourself:
