These are the guide values the standard chart uses to define the size. If your bust is around 80 cm, size 34 is your starting point. Whether the garment fits in the end comes down to how the brand cuts it.
How to measure yourself
Measure in your underwear with a soft tape. Three measurements are enough:
- Bust: around the fullest part, with the tape level across your back.
- Waist: around the narrowest part, usually a hand width above your navel.
- Hips: around the fullest part of your seat.
Keep the tape snug but not tight. The values in the chart are guide values, not a promise. If you fall between two sizes, go by your bust for tops and by your hips for trousers and skirts.
If 34 does not fit
One size down is 32 (76 cm bust, 84 cm hips), one size up is 36 (84 cm bust, 92 cm hips). In this part of the chart each step is 4 cm of bust and hips.
If you land in between, the larger number is usually the smarter pick. Taking a garment in is easier than letting it out.
