3 Reasons You Need to Know Your Measurements
We remember when one of our clients came to us and was practically in tears. It was two weeks before her sister’s wedding. She was the Maid of Honor. The bridal party ordered their dresses online and she just got the shipment.
GUESS WHAT?
None of their dresses fit!!
Her sister was devastated! They had no idea what they would do. It was impossible to get someone from the company on the phone and their return policy states no returns or exchanges. They desperately needed help. They were about to have a wedding with no bridesmaids dresses!
Can you relate?
Did you ever need to order something online and was totally confused by the sizes?
Have you ever ordered something and when you finally got the order, you realized what you ordered doesn’t fit?
Did you ever buy something, but wished that one little thing was different on it so that it’ll fit just right?
Yea, me too! We definitely can relate.
We recommend everyone knowing their measurements and having them accurately taken. Here’s 3 benefits of knowing measurements:
When purchasing clothing online, you won’t need to second guess the company’s measurement guide - you can make an informed purchase based on your measurements. No need to return clothing to a manufacturer overseas. You can actually be confident with your purchase.
When custom designing your garments you will have your exact measurements, which will allow for the perfect fit. No more muffin tops and bulging arms.
You know that you’re going to get the perfect fit! You didn’t play Russian roulette with your size. You know that your clothes are specific to your waist, hips, arms, etc. You will feel comfortable and wear your clothes confidently.
