Details: Taking precise body measurements is essential for proper clothing fit. Incorrect measurements can result in ill-fitting garments that are either too tight or too loose.

Q1: Why do I get a size range instead of a single size?
A: Clothing sizes vary between brands, so we provide a range that represents the most common sizes that should fit your measurements.
Q2: How often should I remeasure myself?
A: Your body measurements can change over time, so it's recommended to remeasure every 3-6 months or after significant weight changes.
Q3: What if my measurements fall between different size categories?
A: Different clothing brands have slightly different sizing. When shopping, check the specific brand's size chart for the most accurate fit.

A: International sizing varies significantly. Always check the conversion chart for the specific brand or country you're shopping from.
