How do I convert a US women's size to EU?

Add 32 to the US size: a US 8 is an EU 40. Italian sizing adds a further 4, so the same garment is an IT 44.

Why is my UK size different from my EU size?

UK sizing is based on a different fit block and runs four numbers above US sizing, while EU sizing derives from bust measurement in centimetres.

What if I'm between two sizes?

Size up for structured items such as blazers and coats, and stay with the smaller size for stretch knits.

Why sizes differ between countries

Size labels come from national fit blocks developed decades ago from different population surveys. The US and UK use garment-based numbering, most of Europe derives sizes from body measurements in centimetres, and Japan, Korea and China use their own regional standards. Because no global standard exists, matching your measurements to the chart is always more reliable than matching the label.
