About Dress Sizing

Understanding Size Variations

Dress sizes can vary significantly between brands and countries. This calculator provides general guidelines based on standard sizing charts. Always check the specific brand's size chart when shopping, as "vanity sizing" and brand-specific fits can affect the actual measurements.

Body Shape Considerations

Hourglass:
Bust and hips similar, defined waist
Pear:
Hips wider than bust
Apple:
Bust and waist similar, narrower hips
Rectangle:
Bust, waist, and hips similar

When Between Sizes

  • For fitted styles, choose the smaller size
  • For loose or flowy styles, choose the larger size
  • Consider the fabric - stretchy materials are more forgiving
  • Check if the garment has adjustable features (ties, elastic, etc.)
  • Read customer reviews for fit guidance

Shopping Tips

Remember that clothing sizes are just numbers - they don't define you! Focus on finding clothes that fit well and make you feel confident. Different brands may label the same measurements with different size numbers, so always prioritize fit over the size label.
