What is a clothing size chart for?

In the era of online shopping, it is very important to be familiar with sizing charts and be familiar with them. Why do you need it? It's simple so that shopping brings pleasure and joy, and not sadness and disappointment due to the fact that the thing is small or large so that the whole family can be placed there.

Knowing your parameters, the measurements of the clothes you wear, and seeing the size chart in front of your eyes, on the next page of the online store, you are without special labor you can choose the thing you need.

How to define your parameters?

The only thing you need to decide on the right size Is a centimeter tape. If suddenly you do not have this gadget of our mothers and grandmothers, then we will be sophisticated - take measurements with a thread, and only then measure how many centimeters there are with a ruler.

So, the main parameters are: chest circumference, waist circumference, hip circumference.

Chest circumference, often referred to as "OG" on Russian-language sites or "bust" in European and Chinese online stores.

How to measure your chest girth correctly? The measuring tape should run along the most prominent points of the chest, while lying under the armpits, and from the back - at the protruding part of the shoulder blade.

The waist circumference is abbreviated as "OT" or in English-language online stores - "waist".

How to measure OT correctly? It is measured strictly along the waistline, not above, somewhere under the chest, and not below.

Hip circumference, abbreviated as "ABOUT", on American sites - "hip" (less often "thighs").

How to measure your hips correctly? The measuring tape should go along the most protruding points thigh bones and buttocks.

It is also worth noting that sometimes you can come across such abbreviations as POG, POT, POB. Do not panic, these are all the same girths of the chest, waist and hips that are already familiar to you, only divided into two, that is, a half-girth. For example, if the volume (OB) of the hips is 90 cm, then the half-girth of the hips (PHB) will be 45 cm.

An example of how to measure the circumference of the hips

How not to miscalculate with the size?

In order to correctly determine the size, it is worth following a few rules:

- When taking measurements, in any case, do not tighten a tight measuring tape, do not suck in your stomach and do not strain your abs, as all this can, but what is there, will definitely distort the results, and you will get false readings.

- If, after you have taken measurements, you clearly do not fall into the sizes presented on the website of the desired online store, but are somewhere in the middle, give preference to the larger size.

- Sometimes in the size tables, in addition to the girths, they also indicate the preferred height for a particular size, pay attention to it. For example, if a dress suits us in terms of OG, OT and OB, you have a height of 155 cm, and it is recommended for a height of 175, then it is most likely that it will be long for you.

- Continuing the topic of growth, pay attention to the parameters of the models (they are often indicated on the page of the sold product itself) on the catalog pictures and compare them with yours.

- If you want to make a purchase in an online store, which has a representative office in your city, for example, the same Zara or H&M, then first go to an offline store and try on there the right thing, see what size of this brand matches your parameters and order it.

- When ordering outerwear, be it a jacket or a coat, it is best to focus not on the measurements of your body, but on the parameters of your existing item of this type. For example, if you need to buy a coat, then you do not take all measurements from yourself, but from the coat that hangs in your closet, of course, provided that it fits you well.

Size charts of different countries

In total, it is customary to distinguish between the following sizes:

- International. Single letter size: XXS, XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL, etc.

- Russian. This dimensional grid is designated as follows: 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, etc.

- English. This size is referred to as UK. Size writing: 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, etc.

- American. Its abbreviation is US. Similar in spelling to English, but the parameters are completely different: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14.

How to determine your size

The weaker sex has been wearing skirts for a long time. And to our time, they do not lose their relevance. They add femininity, elegance and uniqueness. A huge variety of skirt styles were invented by fashion designers. Mini, maxi, fitted, free - the choice is large. Classical and austere emphasizes the feminine silhouette.

It is necessary to select strictly according to the size, otherwise it will spoil your appearance and lacks comfort. Narrow - twists and rises. Wide - will slide.

Measure your body according to the rules. Then you will not be mistaken in the measurements. You need to undress or stay in your underwear. For a skirt, two sizes are required: hips and waist - their girth. The waistline is at the narrowest point of the body. And the hip line is the most prominent part. Fix the values, and see the results in the presented diagram.

If the waist corresponds to the figure - 60, and the hips - 85, then your size is 40. Based on the Russian norm, calculate the size of the skirts from foreign manufacturers.

Any woman strives to have a chic, varied wardrobe. Beginning with young years, teenage girls want to look their best! Dresses, blouses, blouses, skirts, trousers ... you can endlessly list items of women's wardrobe.

Often girls buy clothes without trying them on. Don't think about the importance of size. As a result, it turns out that the purchased item is large or small. And "sits" out of shape. The mood spoils. These problems can be avoided by reading dimensional tables(diagrams).

What is the size chart for?

Such plates were created by professionals for the convenience of calculating the parameters of clothing. From underwear to outer jackets and a coat. Exists great amount shops, boutiques, markets selling items of various brands.

In a real boutique, you can try on a new thing, or choose based on intuition. In a virtual online store, this cannot be done. Therefore, each site has special schemes with dimensions. Knowing their parameters, the buyer will not be mistaken with the choice.

It's important to know- the sizes of linen and clothes are formed from your own measurements. Do not look at your acquaintances if she looks like you in the package. And the dress fits perfectly. It may not suit you. Every centimeter of the body matters.

Therefore, there are dimensional schemes. Don't be lazy to take measurements. In the future, you will avoid problems with purchases. Ask loved ones to help you with the measurement.

The data of such tables is also important for garment production... Especially for dressmakers who create bespoke clothes.

This will serve as a tool for you

Each lady must be able to correctly measure and compare the numbers with the data in the table. She is a kind of "guide" in the world of wardrobe replenishment. All tables have been compiled for the convenience of users. They combine performance data from different countries.

Attention! Learn not to confuse Russian and international norms. They are different in Asia, America or Europe. Foreign parameters are designated by numbers or letters. (XS - small; S - small; M - medium; L - large; XL - very large; XXL - largest.)

For a certain kind things, there is a register. Of course, knowing the measurements of your feet, you will not buy a dress. It is necessary to correctly measure and know every part of the body.

In order to take measurements, you will need a centimeter tape, paper to write numbers, a pen or pencil. You can measure yourself on your own if there is no one around. Write your data and map against table values.

The main measurements that must be taken to determine the size women's clothing, are the volume of the chest (OG), the volume of the hips (OB) and the volume of the waist (OT). This applies to taking body measurements to determine size in any country. But the combination of these obtained measurements gives specific size, which has different designations on different continents and in different countries.

In accordance with Russian GOSTs, the size of women's clothing is defined as half the size of the breast volume. For example, if the chest volume is 92 cm, then this is 46 clothing size (92: 2 = 46). At the same time, with a standard figure with a chest volume of 92 cm, the volume of the hips is 92-96 cm. Therefore, even when choosing the size of trousers, which is determined based on the volume of the hips, it is necessary to know the volume of the chest. The table of correspondence between the parameters of the figure and the size of the clothes can be found in the table:

Domestic clothing standards are now more or less clear to us. Now we propose to dive deeper into the topic and find out which American clothing sizes and European clothing sizes correspond to ours. After all, probably, there is not a single girl or woman who would wear clothes exclusively from a domestic manufacturer.

It is quite easy to determine your size for clothes that are made according to German standards. To do this, you just need to subtract 6 from the Russian size (and we remember that it is half of the breast volume). For example, if the breast volume is 96 cm, then this is 48 Russian size (96: 2 = 48) and 42 European size clothes (48-6 = 42). The same clothing standards for women are used in France and Italy.

The English sizing system for women's clothing is completely different. Of course, measurements are also taken and the ratio of the volume of the chest, hips and waist in one size will be the same, regardless of whether the clothes are produced by a Russian or an English company. It is about the designation of the sizes. Women's sizes in England they are between the designations 4 and 20. Size 4 corresponds to the Russian size 42 and the European size 36. And the 20th English size is 58 Russian and 52 European.

US clothing sizes usually have letter designation... There are the following American sizes for women's clothing: XXS, XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL, 2XL and 3XL. The letter S is the first letter in the word SMALL (small), M - MIDDLE (medium), L - LARGE (large). Size XXS corresponds to the Russian 42 size (36 European), XS - 44th size (38th European) and so on up to 3XL, which corresponds to the Russian 58 size (52nd European).

Let's move on to such an irreplaceable participant female image like shoes. As one famous Italian actress used to say: - "Success of a woman in a tight bra and loose shoes." If one can argue with the first, from the point of view of medicine, then everyone will agree with the fact that a woman should feel comfortable in shoes. In order to accurately determine your shoe size, you must act in this way. Become a foot on a piece of paper, transfer your body weight to this leg and circle the foot. Then you need to measure the distance between the most protruding point thumb and heels. The same should be done with the second foot. Sometimes, one foot is larger than the other, more often the right.

Knowing the resulting distance in centimeters, you can easily determine your shoe size. For example, if the foot length is 25 cm, then this corresponds to the 38th Russian shoe size. Women's shoes are usually produced from 34th (foot length 21.5 cm) to 42nd size (foot length 28 cm). The most common sizes are 36 to 40. Some sizes in Russia are produced by some firms with halves (eg 39.5). View Size Matching Chart women's shoes you can, for example, here.

In Europe and the USA, sizes are indicated differently. In the USA, the Russian 34th size of women's shoes corresponds to the 5th size, and the 42nd - 11.5. In the US and Europe, all sizes are half the values, for example, 5; 5.5; 6; 6.5, etc. The sizes of women's shoes in Great Britain differ from the American ones by exactly 2. That is, to determine the English size, you need to subtract the number 2. So, the smallest size will be the 3rd (Russian 34th), and the largest - 9.5 ( Russian 42nd).

European sizes are a little more complicated in relation to women's shoes. For example, the Russian 34th size corresponds to the 35th European, the Russian 37th European 37.5, and the Russian 39.5, and in Europe it is called 39.5. In order to accurately determine the European shoe size, you can use the table

Representatives of the stronger sex buy things that match the parameters of the figure. There are special size charts that you need to use if there is no way to try on clothes. These nets indicate how to select trousers, jeans, shirts, T-shirts, jackets, underwear for certain parameters.

Dimensional grid of men's clothing

You can find out your parameters using a centimeter tape. When making measurements, it must not be allowed to sag or tighten strongly.

  1. It is advisable to work with an assistant.
  2. Grasp your belly tightly without pulling in. Record the result.
  3. Measure your breast volume. Run the tape along the armpits along the highest points.
