Question

Help answer this question below.

When body measurements are taken do they use the full hip or high hip measurements? For example, when someone says, my measurements are 33-23-33, does that mean that the last 33 is the measurement around her hip bones or around her butt?

    Measurements are taken at the widest part of the bust, the narrowest part of the waist, and the widest part of the hips. The fullness of a lady's rear end does not affect the placement of the measuring tape.

    • yes it does. i measure 93-95 cm around the fullest part of my rear end and a 88-90 around the hip bone. when i measure for the "hip size", which of the two parts mentioned above do i have to measure?
