  1. CHEST: We measure the contour of the chest, and leave a little finger in between.
  2. WAIST: we place the meter around the waist a little higher than the navel, and leave a finger in between.
  3. TOTAL LENGTH: we measure from the girl’s neck to the front of the shoe, always with the girl upright, it is very important.
  4. BACK: we measure from shoulder to shoulder.
  5. ARM: we measure the contour of the arm and leave a finger in between.
  6. SLEEVE LENGTH: we measure from the shoulder, passing through the elbow, and giving the sleeve length we want.
We also advise you to measure your chest and waist circumference by adding 1 cm for every three months remaining until communion, and adding 1 cm in length for every two months remaining until communion, although this never comes to be exact, but it is very approximate, and it will surely help you.
