Size Guide
Wondering how to measure your favourite Saree blouse? Here's a handy guide with all the measurements you need.
How to Measure
Bust Size
Wear a non-padded fitted bra while taking your bust measurement. A flexible measuring tape is needed. Round your measuring tape directly over the fullest part of your chest. Relax your arms and breathe usually. The measuring tape should be parallel and shouldn't squeeze your chest, nor should it be loose. Mark the number on the measuring tape and round it to the nearest whole digit. That's your bust size measurement.
Shoulder
Wear a properly fitted shirt. Keep your back straight, and your shoulders hung naturally. Take your flexible measuring tape and start measuring from one tip of your shoulder to another, touching the collar's bottom. That's your shoulder measurement.
Arm Hole
Stand on a flat surface with arms down by your side. Start by keeping your measuring tape on the top of your shoulder and make a loop. This loop shouldn't be too loose or too tight. Insert a finger width. That's your armhole measurement.
Waist
Stand on a flat surface. Take a flexible measuring tape. Place the measuring tape on your bare skin and round around the naval. The measuring tape should be parallel to the floor and shouldn't be too light or tight on your skin. That's your waist length measurement.
Sleeve Length
Take a flexible measuring tape. Start from either of your shoulders, bend it down to where you want your cuff to finish. That's your sleeve length measurement.
Front Neck Depth
Wear a well-fitted non-padded bra. Take a flexible measuring tape. Start your measurements from the top of your shoulder and move it diagonally to the center of your bust from where you want your blouse opening to end. That's your front neck depth measurement.
Back Neck Depth
Wear a well-fitted non-padded bra. Take a flexible measuring tape. Start your measurements from the centre of your neck, move it across the lower part of your back to where you want your blouse opening to end. That's your back neck depth measurement.
Blouse Length
Take your flexible measuring tape and measure from the center of your shoulder, and move it across the lower part of your back to where you want your blouse to end. That's your blouse length measurement.
Hip
Wear thin fitted underwear. Stand straight. Take your measuring tape and round it across the broadest part of your buttock. That's your hip size.
