Low Hip: Find your natural waist and then measure around your hips , 7 inches below that.

Nape to waist: Measure from the base of the neck at the back to the natural waist. 

Natural Waist/ Waist: This is the smallest part of your waist. Typically it is an inch or so above your belly button.

Waist to Hem : Measure from your natural waist to where you want the hem to be.
