Practical recommendations on how to find out your clothing size
Many people ask this question: "How do you know your clothing size?". Why is it so important? Because any thing, whether ordinary jeans or an expensive dress from the famous couturier, it will not look good on the owner if he made a mistake with the size. It's ugly when the clothes are too big and hangs on the person, like on a hanger. And even more ugly, when the clothes are frankly small, tightens the body, crashes into all folds and underlines every extra gram of fat.
But some people do not even try to figure out how to know their size. They deliberately wear clothes smaller or larger, hoping to hide the real or imagined flaws of the figure in this way. And this is very wrong from an aesthetic point of view.
How do you know your size of the top and bottom clothing for domestic and foreign markings? This question is very relevant at the present time. After all, the stores sell things marked not only according to the domestic, but also according to the Turkish, European, German dimensional grid. How do all these dimensions fit together? Let's try to give some practical advice on how to know your size?
All manufacturers of women's and men's clothing are guided by the same indicators for the formation of their system for the designation of sizes. This is the height, plus the girth of the chest and thighs. Therefore, in order to know your size more accurately, you need to remove these measurements from yourself.
Growth
Measured vertically on the body, from the top to the heels. In order to learn it you should take off your shoes, stand with your back to the wall and make a mark on the level of the crown.
Chest circumference
The measurement should be carried out along a horizontal line around the body. In front - on the points of the mammary glands (the most protruding).
Waist circumference
Measure around the waist. In the measurement it is necessary to maintain the most relaxed state. To involve a stomach it is not necessary.
Hip girth
It is measured standing, legs together, on points of buttocks and hips (most protruding). Measurement of the hip circumference is made along the line, approximately 18 cm below the waist.
It is very important that the measurements made are accurate, because this directly determines the correctness of the further choice of clothing. In order not to miss a couple of centimeters, when measuring you have to execute a few simple rules:
• Measure with a new, unstretched centimeter tape,
• The body area is covered tightly, but do not overtighten,
• To make the results as accurate as possible, measurements should be made on top of the underwear. Extra clothes can add several non-existent in reality centimeters.
It should be noted that for the selection of jeans, pants, men's shirts, additional measurements may be required. For example, the lateral and inner length of the trousers, neck circumference, etc.
First we need to determine the domestic size:
The size of Fr. Breast Oh. Waist Oh. Hips
40 the size of 77 - 82 cm; 63 - 66 cm; 87 - 92 cm
42 the size of 82 - 86 cm; 66 - 70 cm; 92 - 97 cm
44 the size of 86 - 90 cm; 70 - 74 cm; 96 - 99 cm
46 the size of 90 - 94 cm; 74 - 78 cm; 99 - 102 cm
48 the size of 94 - 98 cm; 77 - 82 cm; 102 - 105 cm
50 the size of 98 - 104 cm; 82 - 87 cm; 105-110 cm
52 the size of 104 - 107 cm; 87 - 90 cm; 110 - 113 cm
Then, according to the table of compliance of Russian and foreign indicators, it is up to you to choose your own size (First figure - Russia, second - international, third - European, fourth - USA):
40 - XS - 34 - 6
42 - XS - 36 - 8
44 - S - 38 - 10
46 - M - 40 - 12
48 - M - 42 - 14
50 - L - 44 - 16
52 - XL - 46 - 18
The lettering of European sizes is interpreted as follows: XS - eXtraSmall (smallest), S - Small, M - Medium, L - Large, XL - eXtraLarge (largest).
If an intermediate figure is obtained during the calculations (for example, 41 or 35), it is better to choose the neighboring size upwards.
After researching the above tables, each person will be able to understand how to know their size and definitely choose the thing that will emphasize the merits of the figure and not give out its flaws.
Another important tip: sometimes people buy clothes online, ordering their size without even trying on it. There is no guarantee that the purchased item will really fit in the figure. In fact, except for the general size, each person has its own features and proportions of the body. If you do not take this into account, you can inadvertently spend money on unsuitable clothes.
