How to Size Yourself

A great fit is key to looking your best in formalwear. Arrange a fitting in your local Moss Bros Hire store to be looked after by the professionals. If you want to measure yourself its best to do so barefoot and in your underwear. If possible, ask someone else to do it for you. Take measurements two or three times to account for variations in your posture.

  1. A

    Collar Measure around the neck at base where shirt fits

  2. B

    Sleeve - this is taken from the neck point (the collar seam on the shoulder line) along the shoulder and down the outer sleeve to the cut edge.

  3. C

    Chest - measure the chest around the fullest part, placing the tape close up and under the arms making sure the tape is well up at the back over the shoulder blades.

  4. D

    Waist - measure around the natural waistline over any under garments which may be worn.

  5. E

    Leg - measure from the top of the inside leg at the crotch to the hem.
