The Perfect Fit Measurement Form

If you ordered a custom fit dress, please follow the directions below and submit your measurements directly to ALEX&RA. This can be done before or after making your purchase.

Please note: All measurement fields are required.

First Things First …

  • Tie a string or ribbon around your waist for quick reference while measuring.
  • Extra room will be added later for movement and ease of wear, so only submit the exact numbers that you measure.
  • It is best to be measured by someone else while wearing thin clothes.
  • Remember to stand up straight and don’t suck in.
  • Do not pull the measuring tape tight, but let it lay gently on the body.
  • If you don’t have a measuring tape, use a string and mark where both ends touch, then use a flat ruler to measure the distance.
  • Perfect fit comes with accuracy so if you have any questions, please visit our contact page and we will be happy to assist you.

Stand up straight against a wall with both feet together, eyes looking straight ahead. You can make a small mark on the wall to double check. See diagram »
