Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert women's clothing sizes between the US and UK?

Women's US sizes are typically 4 sizes smaller than UK sizes. For example, a US size 8 corresponds to a UK size 12. EU sizes usually run about 28-30 numbers higher than UK sizes, so a UK 12 is an EU 40.

Are Australian women's clothing sizes the same as UK sizes?

Yes — Australian women's clothing sizes are generally the same as UK sizes. A UK 12 is an AU 12, making conversion between the two straightforward. The difference mainly appears when comparing AU/UK to US or EU.

How are men's clothing sizes standardized internationally?

Men's clothing in the UK and US typically share the same letter sizing (S, M, L, XL), but numeric sizes — such as chest measurements — can differ by a few inches. EU men's sizes are based on centimeter chest measurements, so an EU 50 corresponds approximately to a UK/US medium.

How do I convert children's clothing sizes internationally?

Children's clothing sizes are most reliably converted using age and height (in cm). UK and EU children's sizes are typically labeled by age range (e.g. 2-3 years), while EU numeric sizing corresponds to the child's height in centimeters — for example, EU 98 fits a child approximately 92–98 cm tall.

Why do clothing sizes vary so much between countries?

Different countries developed their own sizing standards independently, based on their own fit models, measurement conventions, and manufacturing traditions. As a result, a 'size 10' in the US, UK, and EU can refer to very different measurements. Always check a brand's specific size guide when shopping internationally.

What is EU sizing based on for women's clothing?

European women's clothing sizes are based on body measurements in centimeters, particularly bust size. A size 36 EU roughly corresponds to an 80 cm bust, and each size step goes up by 4 cm. This makes EU sizing more measurement-based than the arbitrary numeric scales used in the US and UK.

Is XS the same size everywhere?

Not exactly. While XS is used as a label across US, UK, and EU markets, the actual measurements behind it can vary by brand and country. In the US, XS is typically a size 0–2, while in the UK it corresponds to roughly a size 6–8, and in the EU it maps to approximately a size 32–34.

Can I use this converter for plus sizes?

Yes — this converter includes extended sizes up to XXL and beyond for women's and men's categories. For children, sizes extend from infant/toddler through age 12. Always refer to specific brand charts for the most accurate fit, as plus-size grading can vary significantly between retailers.
