Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

Clothing - USA vs Australian

I'm an American whose lived in both the UK and now in France - clothes sizes are a bit baffling, but if Australia uses UK or Asian sizes it goes like this:
Women's Clothing Sizes
UK 8 10 12 14 16
USA 6 8 10 12 14
Continental 36 38 40 42 44
Japanese 7 9 11 13 15
Bust 32" 34" 36" 38" 40"
Waist 24" 26" 28" 30" 32"
61cm 66cm 71cm 76cm 81cm
Hip 35" 37" 39" 41" 43"
89cm 94cm 99cm 104cm 109cm
Some styles are sized small, medium and large. The chart below shows explains the sizes.

Hips 33"-36" 36"-39½" 39½"-42"

100.5-107
I got this chart from : http://www.ethicallyme.com/help_sizes.html
Hope that helps
