I know I'm a girl, I know I should know this but I don't.

I need to figure out my bust, hip and wait measurements to order the corset I want.

Bust is around the nipple right?

Waist about an inch above navel?

Where in the flying dutch do I measure my hips?

    The "bust" measurement, if I'm not mistaken, refers to the fullest part of your bust--which for most women is roughly around the nipples.

    Waist is the narrowest part of your torso; for most women, this is 1-2 inches above the bellybutton.

    For hips, my advice would be to measure around the widest part of your hips.

    If you're ordering online, they should have a sizing/measurement chart somewhere showing you where to measure. Otherwise, if you've got a customer-service number/email address for the company you're ordering from, call/email them and ask.
