| 1. Have the same person measure all girls.
(Do not ask mothers to turn in their daughter's measurements.) |
| 2. Use the same method to measure all girls.
|
| 3. Have the girls wear undergarments similar
to those they will be wearing under the uniform. |
| 4. If a shirt or tights are to be worn under
the uniform, be sure to allow for that. |
| 5. Measure all girls at the same time if
possible. |
| 6. Use a fabric tape measure if possible.
|
| 7. Make sure the tape measure is held snugly,
and firmly (not tightly) against the body. |
| 8. When measuring circumference measurements,
make sure the tape measure is parallel with the floor. |
| 9. Use the following to estimate sizing:
|
|
|
a. If a girl is out of proportion with standard
measurements, order a size large enough to be altered to fit. |
|
|
b. If chest measurement is close, but waist and/or hips
are smaller, size by the chest and alter the waist. |
|
|
c. If chest measurement is close, but waist and/or hips
are larger, size by the hips and alter the chest and/or waist. |
