2. Upper arm: this needs to be the circumference of the largest part of your upper arm
3. Sleeve Length: Measure from your shoulder down to the place you would like your sleeve to end. We will get this as close to your measurement as possible.
4. Shoulders: This should be done with your shoulders as straight as possible from the outside of one to the outside of the other.
5. Waist: Right above your belly button, measure around your entire stomach.
6. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.
7. Length of kameez (blouse): From your shoulder measure to the length you would like your blouse to fall to, traditionally this is to below the knee, however you can make it as short or as long as you like.
8. Length of salwar(pants): Measure from your waist (or the place you want your salwar waist to sit) to below your ankle. (Your entire ankle should be covered)
9. Length of Waist: This is a tricky measurement.T he best way to do this is take a tape measure and position it at your belly button. Measure down to the inside of your thigh, about 2" below your private area. This is to make sure you get a proper fit in the tummy and bottom.
10. Ankle Circumference: Measure around your entire ankle. This is the minimum for your salwar's ankles
11. Drawstring or Elastic Waist: Drawstring waists are free and a drawstring (nale) is provided at no additional charge.
12. With Duppatta or Without: Duppattas (long scarfs) are provided at no additional cost. Ends are sealed at no additional cost.
13. Long Sleeves, Short Sleeves or 3/4 Sleeves: Please be sure to provide your measurements along with your choice.
14. Loosing: Salwar Kameez suits usually come with 2" extra loosing in the bust unless otherwise noted. Example: Your bust measurement is 42", your suit's bust measurement will be 44" for synthetic and 44 1/2" for cotton. This results in a close fitting, tailored look. However, if you prefer a looser fit (more like a t-shirt) we suggest 3-4" loosing. We do not recommend more than 4" loosing in the bust.
