Why Size Charts Are a Problem in the First Place
We’ve all been there: browsing a new brand, falling in love with a dress or pair of jeans — only to pause and think, “What’s my size in this brand?” You scroll down, open the size chart, and try to match your measurements… only to find that nothing aligns neatly. Should you go up a size or down? Does this brand run small? What even is a size 12 here?
The truth is, size charts are flawed for three major reasons:
-
Every brand has its own rules
A size 10 at Zara is not the same as a size 10 at White Stuff, COS, or Mango. There’s no enforced standard — just guesses based on internal sizing models.
-
They require manual interpretation
You have to check your body measurements (chest, waist, hips), convert units (cm/inches), and mentally compare them to the chart — which can be hard if you’re shopping quickly.
-
Most charts aren’t even accurate
Brands often post size charts that are out of date, don’t reflect real stock, or don’t account for fabric stretch, fit preference, or garment type.
Why You Shouldn’t Rely on the Labelled Size
Even if you know your usual size — say, a UK 12 — you can’t trust that number across all shops. Here’s why:
-
Vanity sizing: Brands deliberately label clothes with smaller sizes to flatter customers.
-
Fit models vary: Brands use different body types to define their sizing baseline — tall, petite, hourglass, straight.
-
International inconsistencies: EU, UK, US and Asian sizes don’t align. A size L in Europe might be a size M in the UK or XL in Japan.
-
Garment-specific variation: A brand might use different cuts for jeans, tops and jackets — meaning you’re not even consistent within one shop.
The Smarter Alternative: Use Your Measurements Once — Then Never Check a Size Chart Again
Here’s the shift: Instead of trying to guess which brand’s size chart matches you, why not match yourself to every brand automatically?
That’s exactly what Tellar.co.uk does — and it’s free.

How Tellar Works in 4 Simple Steps
-
Measure Yourself Once
Grab a tape measure and take your:
-
Chest (around the fullest part)
-
Waist (natural waistline)
-
Hips (widest part around your bum)
-
-
Create Your Profile
Head to Create Your Profile and enter your measurements. Choose your unit: cm or inches.
-
Search Any Brand
Visit the Store Size Lookup and type any shop name. You’ll instantly see your recommended size.
-
Shop Smarter Everywhere
Once saved, your measurements are used across brands. You’ll always know your best fit — no matter where you shop.
Example: One Body, Five Sizes
Let’s say your measurements are:
-
Chest: 91cm
-
Waist: 75cm
-
Hips: 98cm
Here's what that maps to in different stores:
Brand |
Your Recommended Size |
---|---|
Zara |
L |
Mango |
M/L |
H&M |
12 |
Massimo Dutti |
M |
COS |
14 |
White Stuff |
12 |
Without Tellar, you’d need to check 5 different size charts and manually convert your measurements each time. With Tellar, it’s instant.
Can I Use Tellar Without My Measurements?
Yes. If you know your size in any one brand, Tellar can use that as a reference to estimate your measurements and map it across other shops.
Just go to the Login Page and select “I know my size in a brand” to get started.
Why Tellar Is Better Than Popup Sizing Tools
Many clothing websites use sizing tools, but they have serious limitations:
-
Only work on one site
-
Don’t support other stores or marketplaces
-
Often use vague crowd-sourced data
-
Don't account for your full body shape
Tellar is brand-agnostic, cross-platform, and accurate because it uses each brand’s real size chart, then overlays your specific measurements.
Does It Work for Men and Women?
Yes — Tellar.co.uk supports both menswear and womenswear, from jeans and trousers to dresses, jackets, and tops.
Brands include:
-
Women: Zara, COS, Mango, Rixo, & Other Stories, White Stuff, Me+Em
-
Men: Uniqlo, Reiss, Barbour, Jack Wills, AllSaints, H&M, Gap
And many more — new stores added weekly.

Final Thought: Say Goodbye to Guesswork
Clothing sizes weren’t made to fit you — they were made to fit brand decisions, vanity sizing, and outdated charts. But your body isn’t average, and your fit shouldn’t be either.
