how to measure bangle size

Bangles = Indian Culture!


Bangles are the oldest part of Indian Culture, and even though Gen Z are more inclined towards western Culture, bangles still have a strong grip over the generation! Today, bangles are not an accessory to be worn with just sarees, suits or any other Indian attire; instead, they are now used as a “fusion”. Women tend to wear bangles with almost every outfit, whether jeans and a blouse or blazers and pants.Bangles come in different sizes, materials and widths. 


Choosing the materials and width of a bangle is comparatively easy; all you need to know is your style. However, to measure bangle size, you need a proper method. So, to assist you, we bring you the answer to the most anticipated question on how to measure bangle size. 


How To Correctly Measure Bangle Size? 

When making an offline purchase, you just have to wear a bangle to find if it is the right fit; however, the same can’t be performed with online shopping. If you buy your bangles online, you must know how to measure bangle size. 


Here we have mentioned two ways to measure bangle size;


Use A String - Measuring The Circumference Of Your Hand

Today, when online shopping is a new way to buy everything, “trial and error” seems an impractical option. Therefore, you need to measure the bangle size to buy a set that fits you ideally. So, for our first method - all you need is a string. Firstly, spot the widest area of your hand, usually around the knuckles. Then, use your pinky/little finger and thumb to squeeze the area (widest area); make sure to bring it to the smallest possible size for the best fit. Then use a string to measure the circumference of the widest area. Lastly, to measure bangle size, use the circumference and spot the corresponding bangle size in the size chart.


By Measuring The Internal Diameter Of The Bangle

The second method to measure bangle size is relatively easier if you already own a set of bangles. All you need is a bangle (true to your size) and a scale. Use the scale to measure the inner diameter of the existing bangle. Once you know the diameter, use the measurement to spot the corresponding bangle size. Voila! Now you can easily buy your desired bangle set ONLINE!

How To Measure Bangle Size For Gifting Purpose? 

Above, we have mentioned ways to measure bangle size if you are planning to buy a bangle set for yourself. However, if you are planning to present a bangle set, the first option to measure bangle size is not the most suitable. To minimise any chance of spoilers, ask their friend or spouse for bangle size. If they are unaware of the size, you can ask for one of their existing bangles and use it to measure the inner diameter, and there you have it! Repeat the same process to measure bangle size using a size chart.
