Body measurement explanation

Accurate conversion depends on your body measurements. For tops and jackets, measure your chest at the fullest part. For pants, use waist and hips. For dresses, use bust, waist, and hips. Record measurements in centimeters for the best match to EU and international size charts. Different brands use different fit models—when in doubt, refer to the brand's size chart.

Fit differences

US and UK sizing often use different base measurements; EU and Asian sizes may run smaller. US tends to be more relaxed; EU and Asian cuts are often slimmer. Consider sizing up when ordering from European or Japanese brands if you prefer a looser fit.

Garment cut explanation

Tops sizing varies by cut: slim, regular, and relaxed. Letter sizes (XS, S, M, L) usually reflect chest or bust for tops and dresses; numeric sizes (e.g. 32, 8) often reflect waist or a combined scale. Jackets may follow suit sizing or outerwear-specific charts. Always check the brand's size guide for the specific garment.
