Explain the difference between garment size and body measurements

Explain the difference between garment size and body measurements. Practical live-host checklist, fictional example and limits to check before your next.

Demonstration checklist

  1. Label garment and body measurements separately.
  2. Explain the measuring position.
  3. Leave room for the buyer's fit preference.

Fictional worked example

In a fictional rehearsal, a buyer compares the sample with an item already owned. The team turns the problem into a concrete check: label garment and body measurements separately. Next, they explain the measuring position. If the answer still depends on missing information, they leave room for the buyer's fit preference.

Limits and next check

Use the current variant and chart. One sample cannot guarantee individual fit; obtain the relevant measurement before helping the buyer choose.
