You’re right! I sew infrequently as a hobby. I always thought my waist was just above my hips. When it comes to sewing, it’s actually closer to my belly button.

The size of the clothes also need to account for the fabric type. If it stretches x%, then you’ll want to maybe make it smaller, so it stretches to fit, or it will look frumpy. If the fabric doesn’t stretch at all, you’ll need to make sure there’s enough ease in the garment so you can bend and move your arms naturally.
