How to measure yourself

Please provide in inches or in metric system for your choice.

Please note that all our models are conditionally divided into women's (dresses, women's costumes, corsets) and men's (men's costumes, all gambesons and armor). Patterns are created taking into account the classic features of the female and male figures. If your gender is opposite to the model's gender in the photo – please mention it in the comments.
