Hip/bust/waist ratio question?

Today I got measured for an opera costume for an opera I'll be in..

My bust was 34 inches, my waist was 28 inches, and my hips/butt was 38 inches.

I've always been a fairly thin individual. I exercise a few times a week, and my diet isn't too bad, but I've been looking online, and it seems like my hip size should be about two inches smaller for my build. Does it seem that I'm unhealthy? I don't think anyone would say that I have any weight to lose. I'm 5'8"ish and a little over 125 pounds.

Do I seem healthy??

Thanks for the input.

    You sound perfectly healthy. Try not to compare your hips ratio to those you find online. If you are fit, then I doubt you have anything on your hips to lose. My figure is almost exactly the same as you. What's unhealthy though, is worrying so much when you're perfectly healthy.

    You sound perfectly healthy to me, although I'm no expert. Everyone's body is different and not every source will be accurate about what's right or wrong.

    If you're still worried, you can visit a nutrition doctor to discuss your concerns.

    Hope I helped! [:
