Frequently asked questions

What is vanity sizing?+

Vanity sizing is when brands label clothes with smaller size numbers than the actual measurements suggest. A US 8 at one brand may have the same measurements as a US 10 at another. This practice is especially common in US fashion. Always check body measurements when available.

How do I measure my bust, waist, and hips?+

Bust: measure around the fullest part. Waist: measure around the narrowest point, usually just above the navel. Hips: measure around the widest part, usually about 20cm below the waist. Keep the tape level and snug but not tight.

Why do Italian sizes seem so much larger?+

Italian sizing adds approximately 28-30 to the US size number. A US 8 is an Italian 44. This is simply a numbering convention, not a reflection of larger garments.

Are French and EU sizes the same?+

For most clothing, French and EU sizes are very similar but not identical. French sizes tend to run one size smaller than general EU sizing for certain garment types. When in doubt, refer to body measurements.

How does Japanese clothing sizing work?+

Japanese women\'s clothing uses a numbered system (5, 7, 9, 11, 13...) where each number corresponds to specific body measurements. Japanese sizes tend to run smaller than Western sizes because they are designed for the average Japanese body frame.
