Your hips are measured standing, legs together, with the tape measure at the widest point around the seat, that is, at mid-buttock. The measurement is not taken at the hip bones but lower down, around the lower pelvis, where the shirt tails fall. At Swann, a Parisian made-to-measure shirt house, we show you how to take it on video.
One of the steps in getting the right measurements for your men's shirt is taking your hip measurement.
Measure your hips by placing the tape measure at the widest point around the seat, that is, at mid-buttock. Do not measure at the hip bones, but lower down, around the lower pelvis.
At the widest point around the seat, that is, at mid-buttock, with the tape perfectly horizontal.
No. A measurement at the hip bones is taken higher up. For a shirt, measure the lower pelvis, at mid-buttock, as this is where the shirt tails fall.
Standing, in a natural posture, with your legs together. Standing with your legs apart distorts the measurement.
Avoid thick clothing. Thin trousers or underwear are enough, otherwise the thickness of the garment would be added to the measurement.
