cm or inch

Step one

Step 1: Get a measuring tape

Read this 1st:

Use centimetres. That would be cm’s on the measuring tape. 

Get a friend or a family member to help, it could make measuring yourself a little easier and it will be fun.

Then, you can either complete the measurements form below as you take your measurements, or better, write them down on a piece of paper and type them into the form once you are done. 

  • Always remember to send your cup size (bra size)
  • While taking your measurements, you should wear the same height heels that you would be wearing to your special event.
