Camila Alves Inspired Purple Sweetheart Draped Mermaid Evening Gown

The below is just a guide. We recommend that whenever possible you get a qualified seamstress to measure your dress size. Always have someone else take the measurements—self-measuring is often inaccurate. Measure with undergarments similar to those you will wear with your dress; do not measure over other clothing.

For standard sizes, compare your measurements with the Size Chart on this product page. For products offering Custom Size, enter your own measurements in the product options and include cm or inches.

Bust

• This is not your bra size.
• Wear an unpadded bra; arms relaxed at your sides.
• Measure around the fullest part of your bust.

Waist

• Find your natural waist (smallest part).
• Usually about 1 in. above the belly button.
• Keep the tape slightly loose for comfort.

Hips

• Measure the widest part of the hips.
• Usually about 7 in. below the natural waist.
• Ensure the tape passes across both hipbones.

Height & Hollow to Floor

• Stand straight with feet together.
• Height: head top to floor (barefoot).
• Hollow to Floor: from the hollow at the base of the neck straight down to the floor; measure with your shoes on if you will wear heels.

For short dresses not reaching the floor, measure to the actual hemline of the dress.
