How to Measure Plus Size Swimsuit Size

Measure Hips: Measure the circumference around your hips and bottom at the fullest part of your hips.
Measure Waist: Measure your waistline (circumference.). Not sure where you waistline is? Your waistline is located just above your belly button. Stand in front of a mirror, and bend to one side. Your waistline is simply where you can see a natural indentation in torso on this side.
Measure Bust: Measure over the fullest part of your bust and all the way around your body. Keep measuring tape parallel with floor.
Measure Torso: Use a flexible measuring tape. Place the measuring tape at a point in the middle of your shoulder. Let the tape continue down across the fullest part of your bust (one of the breasts - not through the cleavage). Pass the tape through your legs and take the tape right up your back to the initial starting point (shoulder).
