Full Bust

Around the bust at the fullest point.

Waist

Around the waist at smallest point. Start by tying a ribbon or piece of string around the natural waist, which would be around your torso at the smallest point. Leave the string in place while you do the rest of the measurements. You will need it for reference for some of the other measurements.
