Bust measurement: Measure your bust by placing the tape measure 1-2 inches below your armpit on one side, guiding it around your back, and ending back where you started. Make sure you measure over the furthest point of your chest.

Waist measurement: Find the halfway point between your belly button and the bottom of your ribs. Circle a tape measure all the way around this part of your torso to get your waistline measurement. 

Hip measurement (high): Your high hip is where your hip bone begins. Measure the top of your hips by placing the tape measure approximately 3-4 inches below your belly button and circling around. 

Hip measurement (low): Your lower hip is where your hip bone ends. Measure the lower part of your hips by placing the tape measure approximately where the zipper of our jeans would end (about 3-4 inches below your high hip) and circling around.
