size measurement
I already have Chest, Waist and Hips, so Girth is a measurement different and separate from those. I found the following definition
Measurement 4- Girth: With someone's help, run the tape measure from the right shoulder at the corner of the neck. Make sure to go over the fullest part of the chest, down through the center of the crotch. Finally, go up your back to the corner of the neck on the left shoulder. Be sure to keep the tape taut and not twisted. The measuring tape ends should not meet.

but I don't know what this is called in German. I have looked at bunches of German size charts; none of them seem to reference this one, even on bilingual sites (they seem to drop it in German). Any other ideas?
TIA,
Kristina
