What to Wear for Your Photos
To ensure accurate measurements and suit design, please follow these clothing guidelines when taking your photos:
- Wear a bikini or bra that clearly shows the areas being measured
- Avoid padded bras or suits that could distort your natural shape
- Make sure you’re wearing the correct cup size for the most accurate result
Incorrect clothing can lead to misjudged measurements and affect your final suit fit.
Progress Pictures
Progress pictures allow us to see your current conditioning and design a suit that complements your physique on stage. Please send clear images of your:
These images should show your current athletic form and be taken in consistent lighting and angles.
Measurement Pictures
For your suit to fit like a second skin, we need visual measurements. Hold a measuring tape against your body and take a photograph or short video for each pose listed below. No need to read or report the numbers — we’ll handle that!
Tips for Better Measurement Photos
- Keep camera angles consistent
- Ensure the tape is flat and clearly visible
- Do not twist, crisscross, or cover the tape
- Measure against bare skin or fitted clothing only
Required Measurement Angles
Bust Width
For your suit to fit like a second skin, we need visual measurements. Hold a measuring tape against your body and take a photograph or short video for each pose listed below. No need to read or report the numbers — we’ll handle that!
Bust Height
Measure vertically over the centre of your bust, following its natural curve from top to base.
Waistline – Front View
Wrap the tape around your waist at hip bone level. This is your hip circumference — do not include glutes.
Waistline – Side View
Take the same waistline measurement from a side angle. Ensure the tape is level and even.
Waistline – Back View
Repeat the waistline measurement from the back. The tape should still sit level at hip bone height.
Back Coverage Width
Used to determine bikini/figure bottom back width relative to hip size and your chosen suit cut.
Front-to-Back Crotch Measurement
Place the tape at the top front of your underwear and pull it between your legs to the tailbone. This helps us determine bottom length and rise.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Incorrect measurements may delay your order or affect the fit of your suit. Here are some things to watch out for:
- Tape placed too high or too low on the waist
- Tape not visible or twisted
- Clothing covering key measurement areas
- Crisscrossed tape preventing clear readings
- Padded garments distorting natural bust shape
Clear examples are provided in the images above — follow them carefully for the best results.
