The customer is responsible for the size they choose to order. eDressit cannot assume responsibility for the size ordered or for measurements taken outside of our salons. Therefore, we cannot suggest a specific size. Please read the following guidelines prior to selecting a size.
  1. 1. Never try to take your own measurements! We suggest having a professional seamstress/ tailor in your area take your measurements. If this is not possible, please have someone besides yourself take the measurements.
  2. 2. If possible, have the measurements taken in the undergarments you will be wearing with your gown.
  3. 3. To take the bust measurement (A), put your heels together and arms down at your side, position the tape so it covers the widest part of the back and the fullest part of the bust. Keep your thumb behind the tape.
  4. 4. When measuring the waist (B), place your hands at your natural waistline, the tape should be placed here. Do not pull the tape taut or hold in your tummy! Leave the thumb behind the tape while taking the waist measure.
  5. 5. To take an accurate hip measurement for a straight or sheath garment (C), place your heels together and position the tape around the widest part of the bottom and bring across the widest part of the thigh. Always place a thumb behind the tape and do not pull it taut! If the style being worn is an A-Line gown, place your hands at your natural hipline and with heels together, position the tape around the fullest part of the hip.
  6. 6. For extra length, our vendors suggest consider ordering it if you are 5' 8" or taller, with the heels you will be wearing with the gown. Extra length is usually a standard 5'" inches longer although this will vary between designers. When ordering a bridesmaid gown, remember to check with the bride to see if she requests a certain hem length she wants her attendants to wear. Extra length is always an additional charge and varies between designer.

Once you have taken your measurements, see the selected dress's size chart in description in our store. These charts are directly from the designer and show how they cut their sizes. Keep in mind the designers do cut differently from normal street clothes so you may measure into a size you normally do not wear. The measurements are taken to determine the closet size to be ordered. 

If your measurements indicate one size for the bust and a different size for the waist and or hips, the designer suggests ordering according to the largest measurement. If you can not find any size fitting you according to our size chart, don't worry, most dresses in our also can be custom made to your exact measurements. If you are still not sure about the sizes, please go ahead to contact us. Enjoy your purchsing. Many thanks.
