How to measure correctly – without stress
It’s best to find someone to help you with measuring, as it can otherwise be really tricky to measure the exact spots.
First, make sure you’re wearing a T-shirt or a thin sweater. A Hoodie, for example, could distort the results.
Chest circumference (B)
Once you’ve determined your Height, you can start with the chest circumference. For this, place the measuring tape horizontally just below the armpits. As a little tip, you can position the tape a bit higher on your back so that the measurement at the front matches the full chest.
Waist circumference (C)
The waist circumference is measured at the narrowest part of the upper body, which is usually just above the belly button. Place the measuring tape horizontally around your body at this height, making sure it runs parallel to the floor.
Hip circumference/Pelvic circumference (D)
To measure your hip or pelvic circumference, stand up straight with your feet close together. Hold the measuring tape horizontally just above the hip bone.
Back length (E)
For the back length, tilt your head slightly forward and find the vertebra that sticks out the most. Start measuring from this point straight down along the center of your back to the bottom edge of your waist. This is how you measure your back length.
Arm length (F)
To measure your arm length, measure from the highest point of your shoulder bone, over the elbow, down to the middle of your wrist.
