Hips: I measure straight across at the widest point of the Garment.
This usually works out to be around 14cm lower than the waist measurement.
Shoulders:
I measure straight across the top of the garment between the two shoulder seams.
Bust:
Some garments are too difficult to measure the bust accurately;
I measure the bust of all of my items by laying them flat and measuring
straight across starting right under the seam of the sleeve of the arm.
Making sure the garment is appropriately laid out and not stretched.
