IT'S ALL ABOUT THE FIT

1 NECK

Place the tape measure just below the adams apple and wrap around gently leaving a fingers width for comfort and functionality.

2 CHEST

First Measure the the bust by having the client raise their arms. Place the tape measure firmly under the armpits, wrapping it around once, ensuring the tape is level front to back. The measurement taken with two fingers snug against the inside of the tape measure is the one to use.

3 WAIST

Measure the waist at the clients narrowest point, usually at the position where the shirt overlaps, as shown in the video. Wrap the tape measure snugly around the waist, keeping it level, and use the measurement with two fingers snug against the inside of the tape measure.

4 SLEEVE

Measure sleeve length by finding the junction between the shoulder and the arm, measuring down 2 cm above the webbing of the thumb.

5 INSIDE LEG

Where the fork of the trouser sits, place the tape measure as close to the crotch area as possible and measure down the inside of the leg to where your dressing preference is.

6 OUTSIDE LEG

Measure the length of the trouser by having the induadjust to their most comfortable state and measure down to the ankle or heel: Run the tape down the outside of the leg, along the hip, past the knee, and down to:

• The ankle for the cropped no-break style or

• The top of the shoe heel for a full-length break

BOYS MEASUREMENTS

Do you have a special occasion coming up? Don't worry; measuring your son for a suit follows the same process as it would if you were measuring an adult. Make sure you take care when measuring to get the most flattering and comfortable suit size.

IS THE SUIT TOO BIG?

You should be able to gauge if your son's suit is too small if the blazer sags or bites around the shoulder area, and when buttoned, flares outwards, or less than 80% of the buttocks are covered. If his trousers feel too tight when he makes normal everyday movements, this could also be a sign that the suit is too small.

If you're worried your son's suit may be too big. you should be able to notice this relatively easily from how it sits on his body. Some evident signs include the shoulder cushions surpassing where his shoulder ends, the jacket looking and feeling uncomfortably loose, and the trousers hanging below the ankles and draping over the shoes.

When correctly measured, he should be able to place a couple of fingers within the sleeve, a little bit of his shirt should be on display, and his trousers should fit snugly.
