Dress Size Chart

Following chart can serve as an approximate guide to US female dress sizes. But keep in mind that many clothing manufacturers are using their own sizing guidelines and sometimes intentionally keep marking their products to run larger or smaller. And not every woman will fit into one size in all three measurements (over bust, waist, and hip). If she is shopping for a low-waist trousers, she can use just the hips size. If she want a dress and can’t buy custom-tailored piece, she will probably need to go according the measurement that fits the largest size.
