All of us, men and women, women of fashion and thosewho cares about having a large number of clothes in the wardrobe, you have to buy your own clothes. A variety of things from different manufacturers creates difficulties in determining its size. For example, the size of US clothing is different from that produced in Russia. This article is about how to deal with such measures and not to bother sellers with a request: "Will you please show this thing to me?".
First you need to learn how to identify yourclothing size in accordance with generally accepted standards in Russia. When measuring, it is not necessary to stretch the tape and retract the measured parts of the body - any measurements must be taken in a relaxed state. Different parameters are important for different wardrobe items, for example, the size of men's shirts most often depends on the neck girth.
One of the important indicators is wrongthe definition of which threatens to turn into very long trousers or sleeves on a jacket is growth. To determine it, you need, as in childhood, to stand barefoot with your back to the wall and precisely mark the place where your crown ends. The distance from the floor to the line will be a growth indicator. It is necessary to choose clothes with indication on the marking of growth close to yours.
The next parameter is the chest girth (FG).The most prominent parts of the chest are measured. It is determined by the size of clothing for the upper body - jackets, sweaters, blouses, T-shirts. To define it, the OG should be divided by 2. For example, an OG equal to 88 cm corresponds to 44 Russian sizes, and an OG in 100 cm corresponds to the 50th.
Underbust girth is important for sizing.women's underwear. Everything is clear here - the measured volume is written in the label. For example, 75B, where 75 is the volume under the breast. The letter in the marking is the difference between the volume under the breast and the exhaust gas. The most common dimensions are defined as follows: a difference of 11-13 cm - A, 13-15 cm - B, 15-17 cm - C, 17-19 cm - D, etc.
Waist circumference (FROM) is measured at the narrowest point of the waist.
The girth of the hips (ON) is measured, on the contrary, by theprotruding seats buttocks. On it, as well as on the OG, is determined by the size. Only now - clothes for the lower body: pants, shorts. Everything is exactly the same as in the case of the OG, with division by 2.
To determine the required length of the pants, includingnumber and jeans, you need a parameter such as the length of the inner seam. It is worth considering that, for example, jeans look beautiful if slightly narrowed to the bottom of the product. By the way, their length is often referred to as the length of the internal seam, but in inches. You can calculate it by dividing the length by 2.54 and rounding the result. For example, a length of 81 cm is equal to 32 inches. The length of the pants is best measured by the existing, suitable for you, comfortable pants.
By the way, the size of men's shirts is also determined by the chest girth. But on the label, as a rule, there are indicators such as height and neck girth.
Often on things you can find the designated clothing sizes: "S", "M", "L", etc. These sizes correspond to the Russian ones: XS - 42 size, S - 44, M - 46, L - 48, XL - 50, XXL - 52.
When choosing clothes of your size you needconsider that sometimes it is important that the thing does not fit and not emphasize disadvantageous parts of the body. For example, paying attention to the size of men's shirts, add a couple of centimeters to the neck girth.
If any of your measurements do not matchstandards indicated on the markings of things, and most likely, the way it is, should be rounded size in a big way. For example, if you reduce and not increase the same size of men's shirts, taking into account advice on measuring neck circumference, then, you know, nothing good will come of it. A shirt that is slightly loose around the neck will be a tight chest that, in addition to a feeling of discomfort, will also emphasize an unpresentable appearance.
