Was it a circle dress? Hip measurements are unnecessary when you have a full circle skirt - otherwise I'd have problems, I think ... And I did find that with my VoH dresses the halter strap was very very long, and I had to cut about six inches out of it to adjust it. I don't know whether they use a really odd measurement, or whether my shoulders are just really low ... >_<
