Why Sizes Vary by Brand
Sizing charts above are based on ASTM D5585 (women) and ISO 3635 (international) standards. However, brands use their own blocks:
- Vanity sizing: A brand’s size 10 may fit measurements that would be a 12 by standard charts — see Why Clothing Sizes Vary by Brand
- Junior vs misses sizing: Junior (1/3/5/7) runs smaller than misses (2/4/6/8) — see US vs UK vs EU Clothing Sizes for the full junior vs misses breakdown
- Plus size: US plus sizing (1X/2X/3X) correlates to letter sizes but with different proportions
Always check the specific brand’s size chart for exact measurements.
