How to Find Your Clothes Size in EU and US Sizes (from UK sizing)
✅ 1. Use a Size Conversion Table
Here’s a simple high-street comparison (for women’s clothing) — but keep in mind it’s a rough guide only:
UK Size |
EU Size |
US Size |
---|---|---|
6 |
34 |
2 |
8 |
36 |
4 |
10 |
38 |
6 |
12 |
40 |
8 |
14 |
42 |
10 |
16 |
44 |
12 |
18 |
46 |
14 |
20 |
48 |
16 |
⚠️ Problem: Brands often break these rules. A UK 10 from Zara might fit like a US 2, while White Stuff’s UK 10 might fit more like a US 8.
✅ 2. Convert Using Your Body Measurements (Most Accurate)
Ignore the size labels and match your bust, waist, and hip measurements to each region’s standard:
Example — Women's Size 10 Comparison:
Region |
Bust (cm) |
Waist (cm) |
Hips (cm) |
---|---|---|---|
UK 10 |
86–89 |
69–72 |
94–97 |
EU 38 |
88–91 |
70–73 |
96–99 |
US 6 |
86–90 |
68–72 |
94–98 |
So if you’re a UK 10 with a 90cm bust, a US 6 or EU 38–40 is usually your best fit.
