	BUST - Measure around the fullest part of your bust section. (Without wearing a padded bra) WAIST - Measure around your natural waistline making certain you keep the measuring tape snug, but not extremely tight. HIPS - Measure around the fullest part of your hips. This is approximately 8" below your waistline for Misses Sizes, or 7" for Petite Sizes.
How do I find my appropriate size after making my selection?
	Reference the size chart for each manufacturer. The size charts are located at the bottom of every page under our Customer Service category. Find the size that corresponds to your measurements and make your selection from the drop-down menu in each product description. (Hint ) If your size is in-between - we recommend choosing the larger size. Record Your Sizes and reference them when making your selections.
