How to Measure for a Dress
For the perfect fit, take four quick measurements with a soft tape measure and match them against the size chart below.
Tip: measure your child in light underwear, without outerwear. The tape should sit snugly against the body without pulling tight. If a measurement falls between two sizes, choose the larger one.
Four Measurements
Follow them in order — it takes under two minutes.
Chest
Wrap the tape horizontally around the fullest part of the chest, under the arms.
Waist
Measure around the narrowest part of the tummy, roughly at belly-button level.
Hips
Wrap the tape around the widest part of the hips and bottom.
Sleeve Length
From the shoulder seam down to the desired sleeve length — usually to the wrist.

A Few More Tips
To make sure you get the size just right.
📏 Measurements over height
Kids grow unevenly, so rely mainly on chest, waist, and hip measurements rather than age or height alone.
🧵 Between sizes
If measurements fall between two sizes, choose the larger one — especially for fitted-cut dresses.
