Measurement Guide for Bridal Tops

Please make sure that whoever takes your measurements read the instructions below or the measurements can be wrong. Thank you!

Remember, it’s easier to cut a dress down than to try to lose that last inch, especially with all the goodies at the parties and showers! We recommend you have a professional seamstress who will alter/fit your gown to take your measurements for you. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TAKE YOUR OWN MEASUREMENTS - THEY WILL BE WRONG! Use a vinyl tape-measure; fabric ones tend to stretch over time and your dress will be ordered too small. Our production team may not need all these measurements, but it's good to have them all, just in case.
