Things to remember while taking measurements

“Two heads are better than one” – the saying holds true for women who want to take saree blouse measurements for online blouse shopping. Instead of struggling on your own, take some help from your mother, siblings or a friend.

Wear a saree blouse that you already own and then take measurements. This way you can see whether you want a tighter fit or a loose fit by comparing the measurements with your existing blouse.

Go easy on the width if you are opting for thicker blouse fabrics.

How to Take Saree Blouse Measurements?

  Measure the Blouse Length

Here is a helpful tip that will ensure that you get the right blouse length measurements.

Take the measurement tape and start from the high point of the shoulder. Now, measure till the point where you want the blouse to end. You need to make sure that the measuring tape falls over your bust completely straight to get the right blouse length measurement.

  Measure the Bust & Lower Bust

Measuring the bust correctly will help you to get a nicely stitched blouse that is easy to wear and would not choke you.

To get the right measurements for the bust – start by making a loop with the tape around your chest. It is recommended that you keep the loop a little bit loose for that extra comfort.

For lower bust measurements, all you need to do is measure the circumference of the upper abdomen.

Pro-tip – Wear a nicely fitted inner garment to get accurate measurements and ensure that the measuring tape doesn’t slant at the back where the bra line ends.

  Measure the Armhole

For accurate armhole measurements, you should start by making a loop of the measuring tape around your armpit.

One recommendation would be to keep the loop around 0.5-0.75 inches looser than the measurements that you take. This will make sure that you can easily move your arms and hands without any restriction. Too tight and your hand movements will be restricted and you won’t feel comfortable wearing the blouse to parties or special occasions.
