Communion/Ceremony Dresses
The measures we need are the following:
📌 Chest circumference
The tape measure should be parallel to the floor, loosely placed, with two fingers touching the child's skin. The tape measure should not be loose or tight. It is measured at the most prominent part of the child's waistline. It is important to measure with the child relaxed and with her arms lowered, so that her back does not widen.
📌 Shoulder measurement
It is taken from bone to bone of the shoulders, with the girl in a relaxed position.
📌 Dress length
You measure in a straight line from the corner formed by the neck and shoulder, across the chest, and down to the desired length. This is just to get a rough idea of how our standard length will look.
📌 Dress length (reference)
Reference photo of the full length of the dress.
⚠️ It's best if you send us photos of how you take the measurements without the children's faces in them so we can confirm how they were taken.
