Women's Clothing Size Chart
Use the body measurement that is most limiting for the garment.
| US example range | UK example range | EU example range | Bust range | Waist range | Hip range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0–2 | 4–6 | 30–32 | 30–35 in / 76–89 cm | 23.5–27.5 in / 60–70 cm | 33–37.5 in / 84–95 cm |
| 4–6 | 8–10 | 34–36 | 31.5–37 in / 80–94 cm | 25–29.5 in / 64–75 cm | 34.5–39.5 in / 88–100 cm |
| 8–10 | 12–14 | 38–40 | 34.5–38 in / 88–97 cm | 28–30.5 in / 71–77 cm | 37.5–40.5 in / 95–103 cm |
| 12–14 | 16–18 | 42–44 | 37.5–40 in / 95–102 cm | 30.5–32.5 in / 77–83 cm | 40.5–43.5 in / 103–110 cm |

Use the measurements that matter most for women's clothing
Compare bust, waist and hip together; a fitted garment may need the larger row when those measurements do not all land in the same size.
Treat S/M/L and country labels as ranges, not standardized body dimensions.
Method & references
How this guidance is checked
These sources support the measurement method and help check real-world variation. They are not presented as one universal brand-size table.
- ISO 8559-2:2025 — Size designation of clothes — Primary and secondary dimension indicators — International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Clothing methodology: size designation should be based on defined body measurements rather than assuming universal retail labels.
- ISO 8559-3:2018 — Methodology for body measurement tables and intervals — International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Clothing methodology: body measurement tables are population- and interval-based rather than one universal brand-independent chart.
- Ladies Size Guide — H&M. Cross-check for women’s US/UK/EU clothing labels and bust, waist, and hip body measurements.
- Women's Clothing and Underwear Size Charts — Calvin Klein. Second-brand cross-check for women’s pants, dresses, outerwear, and the variation in numeric sizes at similar body measurements.
