Measurements to be Taken:

When taking the measurements wear a properly fitted Saree blouse or a bra.

  • Shoulder[sh]:Measure from one shoulder to the other.
  • Bust measurement:
  • Shoulder to Bust[sh -bust]:measure from your shoulder to the highest point of your bust.
  • Shoulder to Bra cut[sh-bra cut]:measure from your shoulder to the highest point of your bust and continue along the line to where your bra ends.
  • Shoulder to Blouse length[sh -blouse length]: this measurement gives the length of the blouse . Measure from the sh-bust-bra cut-where you want your blouse to end. You only need to measure the front side. The back length can be determined by calculations discussed later on.
  • Waist:Measure around your body from the point where you wanted your blouse length to end. This will give a tight fit.

For the Sleeve measurement:

  • Sleeve length:measure how long you would like your sleeve to be.
  • Base of sleeve:measure around the arm at the point your sleeve length ends.
