How to measure

Here we explain how you can easily get your exact body measurements.

What you need

ideally: 
a mirror,
a measuring tape

also possible:
the front camera of your smartphone,
a tape, which you can then measure with a rolling metre/ruler.

What applies to all measurements:

Always make sure that your tape measure remains horizontal and measures the entire circumference of the respective body part. Use the mirror or the camera of your smartphone to keep the tape measure level.
Always pay attention to the exact name of the body measurement we use in our size guides ("upper hip circumference" and "hip", for example, sound very similar, but they are not).

For the perfect Size Guide, our Size Guide uses the following body measurements:

Lingerie Softbra & Oni Top:

Upper bust circumference
Measured from the widest point of your chest.

Lower bust circumference
Measured directly under your chest. Do not forget to breathe normally

Lingerie Bottoms & Bodies:

Upper hip circumference
Measured directly at your hip bones, i.e. approximately where your lingerie panty will sit.

Loungewear Pants:

Waist
Measured at the narrowest point of the waist

Hip
Measured at the widest point of the hip
