How to Take Measurements

To ensure proper fit:

Make sure you specify whether your measurements in inches or centimeters
Make sure you provide your body measurements not your kameez or salwar measurements
Measure yourself just prior to placing the order
Do NOT make extra allowances (We'll do it appropriately when we stitch the outfit).
Do not pull the tape too tight or too loose
If possible, ask some one else to measure you

Shoulders - Standing in your natural position measure the full width of your shoulders.
Around Bust - Measure around fullest part of bust under your arms and keep the tape parallel to the floor.
Around Waist- Keeping the tape comfortably loose, measure around your natural waistline.
Bottom Waist – Measure around the area you tie your shalwar/pants. This is in between your waist and hips area, usually around the belly button.
Around Hips- Standing with your heels together, measure around the fullest part of your hips.
Around Armhole – The area from the tip of your shoulders going all around your armpit in a complete circle.
Around Upper Arm– Measurement around your upper arm.
Kameez Length - Measure from highest point of shoulder down.
Shalwar/Pant Length- Measure from waist down. Shalwar is usually 2inches longer than full size pants. For capris you can customize pants length.
