Standing Hip Breadth

The breadth of the hips while standing.

StandingHipBreadth

How to measure

Application

Used in clothing design as the standard standing reference for hip width, distinct from the seated measurement.

Posture

Stand upright with weight evenly distributed on both feet.

Landmark

Measured at the widest point of the hips while standing.

Tool

Tape measure.

Clothing

Remove bulky layers around the hips.

Common mistake

Shifting weight onto one leg causes one hip to drop and the other to flare, widening the result artificially.
