Suit/Dress: Women's sizes are insane and vary greatly. There is no stanardized sizing. Men's suits are sized by chest circumferance (example 40) and sleeve length (short, regular or long). I don't know the numbers for dertmining that bit, though.
Shirt/Blouse: For men, it's by neck size. For women, it's anybody's guess.
Neck: Measure around your neck.
Sleeve: See above with the I dunno
Pants: For menswear (and some women's pants), it's inches around waist and legnth of inseam (crotch to floor).
Inseam: Crotch to floor. Inches.
Bust: This one is fun. For bust size, measure around the fullest part of the bust. To determine bra size, measure directly below the breast and add 5 inches for the band size. Cup size is determined by subtracting the underbust measurement from the measurement around the fullest part of the bust OR measuring under the armpits and sutracting the number from the fullest part of the bust measurement.
Waist: smallest point of the torso
Hips: widest point around the tush
Hat: I know you measure the circumference of the head and divide by something freaky, but I forget the formula.
You left out shoe size and glove size.
