PRESENTED BY ONE HONEY BOUTIQUE
WEDDING DRESS SIZE GUIDE AUSTRALIA
How to measure your bust, waist & hips in inches for the perfect bridal fit.
Trusted by Australian brides since 2011
Choosing the correct size for your wedding dress or bridal gown begins with accurate measurements.
At One Honey Privé, our gowns are made-to-order bridal designs, created according to the size selected at checkout. For this reason, precise measurements are essential before placing your order.
Every product page includes a designer-specific size chart as the final image. We recommend measuring carefully and comparing your numbers directly to that chart.
All measurements should be taken in inches, not centimetres.
HOW TO MEASURE FOR YOUR WEDDING DRESS
Bust
Measure around the fullest part of your bust while wearing a non-padded bra. Keep the tape level and firm, but not tight.
Waist
Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waist — typically just above the belly button.
Hips
Measure around the fullest part of your hips and bottom, keeping your feet together.
Stand straight, arms relaxed at your sides, and ensure the tape sits flat against the body.
BRIDAL SIZING EXPLAINED
Bridal sizing differs from everyday clothing sizes.
It is common for brides to wear one to two sizes larger in bridal gowns than their standard fashion size.
We always recommend choosing your size based on your largest measurement, then tailoring for a perfect fit if required.
Alterations are a normal and expected part of the bridal process.
STANDARD GOWN LENGTH & ALTERATIONS
Our bridal gowns are produced in a standard length designed to accommodate various heights.
Common alterations may include:
• Hemline adjustment
• Strap shortening
• Bust cup refinement
• Waist or hip tailoring
When you order with One Honey Privé, we provide access to our Privé Bridal Atelier Network — a curated list of trusted bridal alteration specialists within our extended network.
We are also pleased to offer exclusive bridal partner benefits through our growing Privé vendor community.
