SHOULDER TO HEM: 60 INCHES
Several Tips on sizing:
A- Bust: Measure over the fullest part of your bust
B-Waist: Measure around your natural waistline 1-2 inches above your belly button, which is the smallest part on your waistline; keep the measuring tape snug but not tight.
C- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips, 8" below your waist (pettie, 7").
Take the numbers and match to the size in chart above
Other things you should know...
1. All of these dresses are 60" hollow to hem (base of neck to floor).
2. Nearly 99% of our customers need some type of alterations.
3. Any gown that is too long may easily be hemmed by your local seamstress.
4. Straps may need to be adjusted. Often with those that are "busty", there is a need to remove the cups that are already included in the gown to allow for the bust to be correct.
5. Gowns are made to the measurements in the size chart. You need to pick the largest of your three measurements.
6. Always around your measurements up! If your waist measurement is 25 inches, a gown with a 24.5 inches will be half inches small, and may not zip. |
