For Customers: How to Measure Your Body Accurately

You don’t need any fancy tools — just a soft measuring tape, a mirror, and a friend (optional but helpful). When in doubt, ensure to check out details in your vendor’s profile and follow the Step-by-Step Measurement Guide.

When browsing a bespoke item, customers should see:

  • View Measurement Guide

  • Book Your Virtual Fitting

  • Message the Designer

How to Submit Your Measurements:

  • Option 1: Upload your measurements directly in your order form.

  • Option 2: Message the vendor directly through our platform’s built-in messaging system.

  • Option 3: Use the measurement link or form provided on the product page.

For Vendors: Uploading Your Measurement Guide

As a vendor, providing clear and detailed measurement instructions ensures fewer returns and happier customers. 

What You Should Upload:

  • A downloadable PDF with your measurement guide and diagram.

  • A link to a virtual fitting scheduler if available.

  • A short, friendly description on your product page explaining how customers should take and submit their measurements.

Recommended Format for Your Measurement Guide (PDF):

  • Diagram with labeled measurement points

  • Bullet point list matching the points (e.g., chest, waist, hips, etc.)

  • Sizing tips (e.g., how tight or loose measurements should be)

  • Optional: Sample measurements (e.g., for standard sizing references)

How to Add These to Your Dashboard:

  • Go to Vendor Dashboard

  • Upload your PDF guide

  • Add your appointment link

  • Use the message template option to communicate with new customers
