When
taking your measurements, always use a cloth measuring tape. Remember to wear
proper undergarments. If you wear a special support bra for riding, your
measurements should be taken with that bra on. Also, make sure the tape measure
is held snugly and firmly (not tightly) against your body and is always
parallel to the floor for circumference measurements. For more accurate
results, it is best to have someone else measure you. I also highly recommend
measuring a finished garment you already have the fits properly and comparing
those measurements to your own.
Bust: Measure around the fullest part of the bust.
Waist: Measure the smallest part of the waist.
Hip: The hip measurement is taken at the widest part of the hips.
Sleeve: With one arm down at a
slight angle, start from the corner of the shoulder and measure down to where
you'd like your sleeve to end.
Shoulder Width: Measure across the back from the corner of one shoulder to
the corner of the other shoulder. For this measurement, I recommend measuring a
jacket you already have that fits properly. Laying the jacket flat, measure
from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.
Center Front Length: This measurement is taken from the base of
the neck down to where you would like the jacket hem to end.
Below is our size chart we use to make our showmanship apparel. Keep in mind we now go up to a size 5x
