At OFELIA, we believe that every woman deserves to feel confident and empowered in her own body, especially when it comes to wearing a swimsuit. We understand that finding the perfect fit can significantly impact your comfort and confidence. Therefore, we have created this step-by-step guide to assist you in taking precise measurements and selecting the swimsuit that best complements your figure, highlighting your natural beauty. 

Find the Right Measuring Tape

The first step to obtaining accurate measurements is to use a flexible measuring tape, ideally one made of cloth or soft plastic. This type of tape conforms better to your body’s curves, allowing for more precise measurements. Ensure the tape is straight and snug, but not too tight. 

Measure your Bust 

To measure your bust, stand in a relaxed position and wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your bust. Ensure the tape is level and does not dip in the back or the front. Breathe normally while taking the measurement to ensure accuracy. This measurement is essential for selecting the top of your swimsuit, ensuring it provides the right support and coverage.

Measure Your Waist

The waist is another crucial measurement for finding the perfect swimsuit. Locate your natural waist, which is usually the narrowest part of your torso. Wrap the measuring tape around this area, ensuring it is straight and snug, but not compressing the skin. This measurement will help you choose a swimsuit that not only fits well but also offers comfort throughout the day.

Measure Your Hips

To measure your hips, stand with your feet together and wrap the measuring tape around the widest part of your hips and buttocks. Ensure the tape is level and does not slip up or down. This measurement is especially important if you are choosing a one-piece swimsuit or bikini bottoms, as it will help you find a fit that stays in place and enhances your figure. 

 Consider Torso Length

If you prefer one-piece swimsuits, it is important to also measure your torso length. To do this, place the measuring tape at the base of your neck, right where it meets your shoulder, and bring it down, passing over your bust, abdomen, and to the lowest point of your crotch. This measurement will help you avoid a swimsuit that is too short or too long, ensuring a comfortable and flattering fit.

 

Check the Size Chart

Once you have all your measurements, compare them with OFELIA’s size chart. It is essential to review this chart, as our sizes may differ slightly from other brands. Choosing the right size is crucial to ensure that your swimsuit fits your body perfectly, enhancing your best features.

Beyond measurements, remember that confidence is the key to looking incredible in any swimsuit. When selecting your piece, opt for colors and prints that make you feel powerful and secure. OFELIA’s collection offers a wide range of options, all inspired by the beauty of the ocean, designed to highlight your individuality and connect with your natural essence.
