About This Tool

International clothing sizes can be bewildering - a size 8 in the US is completely different from a size 8 in the UK, and neither translates directly to European or Asian sizing. Our Clothing Size Converter makes it simple by letting you select the garment type, enter the size you know in any system, and instantly see the equivalent in US, UK, EU, and Asian sizing charts.

The converter covers the major garment categories: tops and shirts, bottoms and trousers, and dresses. Each category has its own conversion table because sizing ratios differ between garment types. US and UK sizes use numbered systems with different offsets, European sizes use a higher number range, and Asian sizes tend to run smaller overall. The tool also shows letter sizes (XS through XXL) alongside numeric sizes for quick reference.

Clothing size standards are notoriously inconsistent, and vanity sizing has made variations even wider in recent years. A US size 6 today is significantly larger than a US size 6 from two decades ago. Use this converter as a reliable starting point, then check the specific brand measurement chart for the best fit. When shopping online internationally, knowing your measurements in centimeters is the most reliable way to ensure proper sizing.

Frequently Asked Questions

For women, UK sizes are typically 4 numbers higher than US sizes. A US size 6 is roughly a UK size 10, and a US size 10 is roughly a UK size 14. For men, dress shirt sizes are the same (based on neck and sleeve measurements), but casual sizes (S, M, L) may differ slightly between brands.
For women, add approximately 30 to a US size to get the EU equivalent. A US size 6 is roughly EU 36, and a US size 10 is roughly EU 40. For men, EU trousers are about 16 sizes higher than US - a US 32 waist is roughly EU 48.
Generally, yes. Asian sizing tends to run 1-2 sizes smaller than US or European sizing due to different body proportion standards. A US medium might correspond to an Asian XL or XXL. Always check the specific size chart with centimeter measurements when ordering from Asian brands.
Vanity sizing is the practice of labeling clothes with smaller size numbers than their actual measurements. Over the decades, a US size 8 has gradually grown to fit larger measurements while keeping the same label. This means vintage clothing or older brands may fit differently than modern sizing suggests.
Measure your chest or bust at the fullest point, your natural waist at the narrowest point, and your hips at the widest point. Use a flexible tape measure and keep it snug but not tight. Record measurements in both inches and centimeters. Compare these to the brand-specific size chart rather than relying on generic size conversions.
