Your Complete Guide to Tailored Clothing and Hats

If you have any doubts about how to take your measurements correctly, I invite you to watch the following video, where I explain the process step by step. At Lunarte Canarias, I specialize in tailoring clothing and hats to measure. For this, I have created the "How to Measure?" section so you can take your measurements and ensure the garment fits perfectly to your body. Therefore, once I receive your order, I will contact you to request the specific measurements needed for the tailoring of your garment. If you still have questions after watching the video, do not hesitate to contact me. I'll be delighted to provide all the assistance necessary to clarify any doubts.

Step-by-Step Guide on How to Measure Yourself

Step 1 (Neck Circumference)

For the neck contour, measure it at the part of the neck closest to the body, snug to the lower neck, and place a finger between the measuring tape and the neck to allow some looseness.

Step 2 (Chest Circumference)

To measure the chest contour, wrap the tape measure around the chest at its widest part and measure snugly.

Step 3 (Waist Circumference)

For the waist contour, it is ideal to place a tape around the waist and measure, as shown in the image, snugly.

Step 4 (Hip Circumference)

The hip circumference is measured at the widest part of the hips, also snugly.

Step 5 (Front Waist Length)

For the front torso length, place the tape where the neck meets the shoulder, pass it over the chest, and measure down to the waist.

Step 6 (Back Waist Length)

For the back torso length, measure from the bone just below the neck down to the waist.

Step 7 (Back Width)

To measure the back width, measure from one shoulder bone to the other.

Step 8 (Sleeve Length)

The sleeve length is measured from the shoulder bone, passing through the elbow, down to the wrist, with the arm slightly extended.

Step 9 (Total Length)

The total length is measured from the base of the neck, passing over the chest, down to the desired length. Similarly, the skirt length is measured from the waist down to the desired length.

Step 10 (Hat Measurement)

For the hat, measure the circumference of the head, passing from the nape to the forehead as shown in the last part of the video.
