Follow our guide to determine the correct size. Proper measurements guarantee the perfect fit.
General Measurement Rules
1
Use a Measuring Tape
For accurate results, use a flexible measuring tape. Do not pull it too tight, but do not leave it loose either.
2
Stand Straight and Relaxed
Stand straight with your feet together and arms at your sides. Take measurements in underwear or light clothing for more accurate results.
3
Record All Results
Write down each measurement in centimeters immediately. We recommend repeating measurements twice to confirm accuracy.
Interactive Scheme
Height
Stand barefoot with your back against the wall, feet together, heels touching the wall. Place a measuring tape or ruler on top of your head and make a mark on the wall. Measure the distance from the floor to the mark. Height is usually measured in centimeters.
Height is best measured in the morning — the spine compresses by 1–2 cm during the day. If measuring in the evening, add 1 cm to the result.
Chest
Wrap the measuring tape around the chest at the most prominent points. The tape should pass across the shoulder blades at the back and the fullest part of the chest at the front. Ensure the tape is horizontal and not twisted.
Do not pull the tape — it should fit loosely against the body without digging in. For jackets and blazers, add 4–6 cm to the result.
Waist
Measure the waist circumference at the natural waistline — the narrowest part of the torso, approximately at navel level. The tape should fit snugly but not dig into the body. Breathe evenly and do not pull in your stomach during the measurement.
Hips
Wrap the tape around the widest points of the hips and buttocks. The tape should be horizontal, parallel to the floor. For a male figure, this is usually at the level of the upper hips.
For trousers and skirts, measure the hips where the clothing will sit. Keep in mind that trousers can be worn at the waist or at the hips.
Sleeve Length
Bend your arm at a 90-degree angle at the elbow. Start the measurement from the shoulder joint (the point where the arm meets the shoulder), run the tape along the outside of the arm through the elbow to the wrist. This is the sleeve length from shoulder to wrist.
Trouser Length (Outseam)
Measure the distance from the waist (where you usually wear your trousers) down the outside of the leg to the desired length — usually to the floor or ankle. For classic trousers — to the middle of the foot, for cropped — slightly above the ankle.
Wear the shoes you will use with the trousers for a more accurate result. Suit trousers are usually 1–2 cm shorter than everyday trousers.
Inseam
Measure the distance from the crotch (where the legs meet) down the inside of the leg to the inside of the ankle or to the floor. This is the most accurate way to determine trouser length by the inseam.
Average inseam for men's trousers: 76–81 cm. If your trousers drag on the floor — the inseam is too long.
Height
Stand barefoot with your back against the wall, feet together, heels touching the wall. Your back should be pressed against the wall, looking forward. Place a straight ruler or book on top of your head and make a mark. Measure the distance from the floor to the mark.
For the most accurate result, measure your height in the morning. During the day, spinal discs compress and height may decrease by 1–2 cm.
Chest
Wrap the measuring tape around the chest at the most prominent points of the bust. The tape should pass across the shoulder blades at the back and through the fullest part of the bust at the front. Ensure the tape is horizontal and not twisted, fitting loosely without digging in.
Do not pull in your stomach or push out your chest — stand naturally. For blazers and jackets, add 6–8 cm of ease to the result.
Waist
Find the natural waistline — the narrowest part of the torso between the ribs and hips. For most women, this is about 2–3 cm above the navel. Wrap the tape around the waist without pulling or loosening. Breathe evenly during the measurement.
Hips
Wrap the measuring tape around the widest points of the hips and buttocks. The tape should be horizontal, passing across the most prominent parts of the buttocks at the back and the wide part of the hips at the front. Stand straight with feet together.
Women's hip circumference is usually 20–25 cm larger than the waist circumference. This measurement is especially important for skirts and trousers — make sure the tape passes across the most prominent points.
Sleeve Length
Bend your arm at a 90-degree angle at the elbow. Start the measurement from the shoulder joint (the point on the shoulder where the sleeve begins), run the tape along the outside of the arm through the elbow to the wrist. The tape should follow the natural curve of the arm.
Skirt or Trouser Length
For a skirt — measure from the waist down the side to the desired length: mini (40–45 cm), midi (55–65 cm), maxi (75–90 cm). For trousers — from the waist down the outside of the leg to the floor or ankle. Wear shoes for a more accurate result.
For business skirts, the length is usually to the middle of the knee (50–55 cm from the waist). Account for heel height — with a 5–7 cm heel, the skirt will appear shorter visually.
Inseam
Measure the distance from the crotch (top of the inseam) down the inside of the leg to the ankle or to the desired length. This is the most reliable way to determine the correct trouser length by the inseam.
Average inseam for women's trousers: 70–78 cm. For cropped models (capri) — 50–60 cm. Wear shoes when taking the measurement.
