Step 1 of 1

Before Your Appointment

Send Us Your Measurements

We will ask one thing at a time. It takes about ten minutes. None of it is final, because we check every figure in person, but it tells us where to start and it saves a good half hour on the day.

Your answers are kept on this device as you go, so you can stop and come back without losing anything.

First, who are you?

So we know whose file this belongs to.

How should it be cut?

And which way you will be measuring.

Read this before you pick up the tape

It makes more difference than any single measurement below.

Please don't measure yourself.
  • Please do not measure yourself. Ask someone to measure you - almost nobody can hold a tape straight around their own back, and a figure taken alone is usually the one we have to correct.
  • Wear close-fitting clothes, or just your underwear. A jumper or a loose shirt can add two inches to a chest measurement without looking like it has.
  • Stand naturally and breathe normally. Do not hold your breath. Do NOT pull your stomach in, and do not stand to attention - we cut for how you actually stand, so a stomach held in while measuring is a garment that will not close when you relax.
  • Keep the tape snug but not tight. It should sit flat against you and you should be able to slide a finger under it.

Leave anything you are unsure of blank. A few figures you trust are worth more to us than a full sheet of guesses.

Height

Standing straight against a wall, without shoes.

Not sure? Leave it blank and carry on.

What do you buy off the rack?

The most useful part of this form. Whatever happens with the tape, you know what fits you in a shop, and that lets us catch a measurement that has gone wrong.

The size you normally buy, such as 40R or 42L.
Such as 16 / 34-35, or L.
The number printed on the label, such as 34. Not a tape measurement.

Three photographs

These tell us more than any single measurement: how you actually stand, where your shoulders sit, how the weight sits on you. They are kept privately on your file and are never shown to anyone outside the shop.

How to take them
  • Stand against a plain wall, with nothing behind you.
  • Close-fitting clothes again - loose clothing hides the shape we are looking at.
  • Have someone hold the phone at about chest height, a few steps back, so your whole body from head to shoes is in the picture.
  • Keep the phone upright and level, not tilted up or down.
  • Good even light, facing it where you can. Avoid standing with a bright window behind you.
  • Arms relaxed by your sides, feet together, stand as you normally stand.

Front

Face the camera, arms relaxed by your sides, feet together.

You can send this without a photograph, but they help a great deal.

Side

Turn a quarter turn. Look straight ahead, not at the camera.

You can send this without a photograph, but they help a great deal.

Back

Turn away from the camera, arms relaxed.

You can send this without a photograph, but they help a great deal.

Anything we should know?

One shoulder lower than the other, a bad back, you like things roomier than most. Anything at all. This is often the most useful box on the page.

That's everything

Have a look over it, then send it to us.
