Deciphering women’s clothing sizes can appear daunting with the various size charts and the diversity in brands. In this blog post, we demystify clothing sizes, show you how to obtain accurate measurements and help you understand the intricacies of finding your perfect fit.
The Conundrum of Women’s Clothing Sizes
To start, let’s delve into understanding women’s clothing sizes. Traditionally, women’s clothing sizes are much more varied than men’s. They range from petite to plus sizes, allowing a wide range of body shapes and sizes to be included. The most common women’s clothing sizes typically range from 0 to 16 or even 18.
In the US, these sizes are usually determined by measurements such as bust, waist, and hip circumference. However, these sizes can fluctuate between brands. This is known as ‘vanity sizing’ and can often lead to confusion when shopping. The solution lies in knowing your measurements and how they align with different brands.
At Althea Couture, we’re all about body positivity and inclusivity. Our extensive collection embraces a variety of sizes, ensuring every woman can find her perfect fit and feel confident and stylish.
Finding Your Measurements
Your perfect fit starts with accurate measurements. It is crucial to measure your bust, waist, and hips to find your ideal size. Here’s a quick guide on how you can measure these key areas:
- Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest with your arms down by your sides.
- Waist: Measure around the natural waistline – this is generally the smallest part of your waist.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and rear.
It’s best to measure yourself in your underwear, and not over clothing. Also, be sure to keep the tape measure snug — but not too tight — and parallel to the floor for the most accurate results. Take these measures with you when you shop, either online or in our Queens boutique, to help you make informed choices.
