BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Taking body measurements is one of the most important steps in
making a custom-made garment. Tailors need to pay a lot of attention to
every small detail while taking measurements for specific garment. Despite
being an obvious necessity, there are many reasons why it is an important
task for the tailors to take accurate body measurements. A well-fitted
garment can enhance not only the look of the person but also the
personality. The measurements for an attire depend on the style, type of the
garment and the gender of the customer.
