In order to assure a perfect fit, I have put together a simple list of important measurements that should be taken with a cloth measuring tape and the help of a friend. Grab a pen and write them down and save it.

Head: measure the circumference of your head just above your ears, eyebrows and around the lower back of your head.

Neck: measure around just above your collar bone, the lowest part of your neck.

Bust: measure around under your arms across the fullest part of your breasts. Not to tight.

Waist: measure the narrowest part of your body center.

Hips: Measure the fullest part of your lower torso. If your wider at the top of the thigh then take that measurement for the hip..

Thigh: Measure the fullest part of each thigh ( for pants )

Calves: Measure the fullest part of the calf   ( for boots or pipe stem pants )

Length: Measure base of back of neck to waist ( spine )

Length: measure waist to hemline of garment.

Overall Length: add top length to bottom length to arrive at overall length.

Inseam: Measure from the crotch the hem of pant.

Crotch depth: Measure seated, from the seat to the top of the waist.
