Semi-formal and cocktail hems vary by style — body measurements follow this chart.
When attending multiple events, one well-fitted dress in your largest measurement is easier to alter than a too-small size.

How to measure
Measure over close-fitting clothing, keep the tape level, and use the largest measurement when choosing a standard size.
- 01
Bust: fullest part, keeping tape parallel to the floor.
- 02
Waist: natural waistline, typically the narrowest point.
- 03
Hips: fullest part, usually 7–9 inches below the waist.
- 04
Hollow to floor: from the hollow at the base of your neck to the floor, in bare feet plus planned heel height.
Between two sizes?
Choose the larger size. A dress is easier to take in than let out. For floor-length styles, include your planned heel height when measuring hollow to floor.
