THE BUYING ANSWER
Start with a clear definition.
Identify the neckline reference and the intended hem point on a drawing. Record whether a collar, ruffle or decorative extension is included. Use that definition consistently rather than measuring to whichever edge is most visible.
The decision behind the detail.
Two garments with the same reported length may cover different areas if their neckline or hem shapes differ. Review the full silhouette alongside the number.

- Identify the neckline seam or other agreed reference.

- Mark the hem location and excluded decorative extensions.
- Review view

Check together
- Check whether collar height is included or excluded.
- Use the same centre line for each size review.
- Record asymmetric hem measurements separately where needed.
