How to Measure

 

Accurate measurements are crucial for finding your Revelry size. Here’s how to measure correctly: Make sure to have a flexible measuring tape on hand to get the most accurate measurements.
  1. Prep for Measurement: Wear form-fitting clothing or just undergarments to get the most accurate readings. Hold the tape measure taut but not too tight, ensuring there are no gaps. Start measuring from zero at the end of the tape.

  2. Bust: Measure the fullest part of your bust, not your bra size. Avoid padded or compressive bras for the most precise measurement.

  3. Waist: Measure below the ribcage, about two fingers above the belly button. If you have a shorter torso, bend to the side to find your natural waistline.

    Note: For styles with an empire waist, the waistband may sit higher on your ribcage.

  4. Hips: Measure at the fullest part of your hips, including your bum and thighs.

Tips & Tricks

  • Alterations: Most dresses will require some level of alterations. If you're in between sizes, choose the larger measurement for fabrics like satin, tulle, or chiffon, as they have little stretch. For stretchy fabrics like velvet or sequins, you can size down.

  • Adjustable Styles: Consider dresses with adjustable features, such as corset backs for added flexibility in fit. Styles without seams at the waist allow for more drape and comfort.

  • Silhouette Recommendations:

    • Pear Shaped (Triangle): A-line, Trumpet, Empire
    • Straight & Narrow (Rectangle): A-line, Trumpet, Empire
    • Athletic (Inverted Triangle): A-line, Empire
    • Hourglass: A-line, Trumpet, Empire, Sheath
    • Apple (Oval): A-line, Empire, Sheath
