How to Take Body Measurements?

SELVA KUMAR

In order to construct a garment that fits well, body measurements must take with precision. You can draft original patterns based on these measurements. This can be used as the basic of a variety of styles.

Preparation for Measuring:-

  1. For taking the measurements use a good quality of measuring tape which study and will not stretch. It should not be too stiff. It should be flexible.
  2. The metal end of the tape should be used for vertical measurements and the other end for horizontal and circumference measurements.
  3. The measurements should be taken over smooth fitting foundation garments and never over bulky garments.
  4. Before taking measurements tie a cord or string around the waist.
  5. Take a ¼” wide tape and cord it around the armhole. This will make it easier to measure the width of shoulder, armhole, depth, etc..
  6. Stand correct with the arm hanging straight at the sides while measurements are being made by someone else. It is possible though less convenient and less accurate to take your own measurements.
  7. Take snug measurements rather than tight or loose ones.
  8. Hold the tape parallel to the floor for horizontal measurements and the tape down to the floor for the vertical measurements.
  9. As the measurements are taken, record then in a notebook. The measurements will depend on the type and style of garments. You are making and the age and sex of the intended user.
