See below to determine your skirt size. Useful when shopping for skirts online!
How to Measure Skirt Size?
You will need to take two body measurements to determine your skirt size: waist measurement and hips measurement. See how to measure here:
Waist: Use a flexible measuring tape and measure around your natural waistline (circumference). Your natural waistline is the slimmest part of your waist/torso. Still not sure where to find your waistline? Stand in front of a mirror, and bend to one side. Your waistline is simply where you can see a natural indentation in torso on this side. Note: Waist measurement is a reference measurement. So even though your skirt will sit longer down on your body, it is important to measure at the slimmest part of your waist.
Hips (seat): Measure circumference around your hips (seat) at the fullest part.
