Size Measurement

Size Measurement

Finding the right size is important for a comfortable and flattering fit. Before placing your Loverlm order, please take your body measurements carefully and compare them with the size chart below.

Please do not choose your dress size based only on your usual clothing size. Formal dress sizing may differ from everyday clothing brands and may also vary slightly between different dress styles.

How to Measure

1. Bust

Wear the undergarments you plan to wear with the dress. Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape straight and level across your back. Keep the tape comfortably fitted without pulling it too tightly.

2. Waist

Measure around your natural waistline, usually the narrowest part of your torso. Keep the measuring tape level and comfortably fitted.

3. Hips

Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat. Make sure the measuring tape stays parallel to the floor.

4. Hollow to Floor

Stand straight with your feet together and without shoes. Measure from the hollow at the base of your neck straight down to the floor.

5. Height

Stand barefoot against a wall and measure from the top of your head to the floor.

Size & Fit Tips

  • Always compare your actual bust, waist, and hip measurements with the Loverlm size chart before ordering.
  • Do not select a size based only on your normal everyday clothing size.
  • If your measurements fall between two sizes, we generally recommend choosing the larger size.
  • If your bust, waist, and hips correspond to different sizes, choose the size based on the largest measurement and consider alterations for a more personalized fit.
  • For fitted, sheath, or mermaid dresses, pay close attention to both waist and hip measurements.
  • For A-line and empire waist dresses, bust and waist measurements are especially important.
  • Please allow for slight measurement differences due to manual measuring and different dress designs.

Plus Size Measurement Tips

For plus size dresses, accurate body measurements are especially important. We recommend measuring your bust, waist, and hips while wearing the undergarments you plan to wear with the dress.

When selecting a plus size, use your largest body measurement as the primary reference. If you are between two sizes, choosing the larger size usually provides more room for comfort and possible alterations.

For fitted plus size dresses, including mermaid and sheath silhouettes, please pay particular attention to the waist and hip measurements before ordering.

Custom Size

If a Loverlm dress supports custom sizing, please provide accurate body measurements when placing your order.

Depending on the dress, you may be asked to provide measurements such as:

  • Bust
  • Waist
  • Hips
  • Hollow to Floor
  • Height
  • Shoe Height

Please double-check all measurements before submitting a custom-size order, as custom-made dresses are created based on the measurements provided.
