About the Clothing Size Converter
There's no single international standard for clothing sizes; each country and brand sizes slightly differently. The equivalences here are the ones most retailers use, and work as a good first guess.
For the best fit, compare your body measurements with the brand's own size chart.
The formula
Women: UK = US + 4, EU = US + 32; Men: EU = US + 10
- France
- US + 34 (women)
- Italy
- US + 36 (women)
- Men's US/UK
- chest measurement in inches
How to read your result
- The highlighted size is a starting point; brand charts win.

Questions people ask

Usually, yes: EU 38 = UK 10 = US 6.
Why do sizes vary between shops?
Brands cut for different body shapes and some use “vanity sizing”, labelling clothes smaller than the measurements suggest.
