Often we think that we need clothes that are smaller than they really are. Buying clothes in this situation can end in trouble. Incorrectly selected, too small panties will rub the skin and leave marks on the hips. They can also highlight some of the shortcomings of your figure. In order not to be in this situation, you need to be able to correctly determine the size of your laundry.
Data that will be needed
You will need to measure yourself in the narrowest place of the body (at the waist) and hips along the most convex points on the buttocks.
IMPORTANT! To make the data more accurate, it is necessary to take measurements in clothes made of thin-fitting fabric, and even better, leaving only underwear. Measurements are taken in the morning on an empty stomach.
In this case, you do not need to retract the stomach. Keep your feet together, stand upright. The centimeter tape should not sag, but it is not necessary and pull it too much. It should fit snugly to the body, clearly repeating its contours.
