Have your child wear a well-fitting T-shirt and some loose fitting pants (trousers). Please complete all your

measurements in inches.

1. Across the shoulders, from shoulder seam to shoulder seam of the T-Shirt.

2. Length of arm, from shoulder seam on the T-Shirt down to the middle of the hand.

3. Width of back, from armpit to arm pit.

4. Length of back, from neck of T-Shirt (under the collar if it has one) to waist.

5. Under the arms, all the way around. Insert your finger into the tape measure so the topwill be a little looser. For girls, around the fullest part of the bust plus one finger.

6. Around the waist, all the way around. Insert your finger into the tape measure so thepants will be a little looser.

7. Around the hips, find the hip bone, just above this is a soft space, this is where to measure. Allthe way around.
