How to find your size
1
Know your starting size or measurements
Use a well-fitting garment's label, or measure bust/chest, waist and hips.
2
Read across the chart
Find your size's row — every column in that row is the same size in another system.
3
When in doubt, size up
Between sizes or between brands, the larger size is usually the safer buy.
