What this means in practice

A US 10 (EU 42) lines up with roughly a 92 cm bust (~36.2 in), 76 cm waist and 100 cm hip under the EN 13402 bands. If your bust measures more than about 94 cm you'll usually be more comfortable one size up; under about 90 cm, size down. These are advisory bands — high-street brands vary, so measure rather than trust the label.

How we calculate this

Women's conversions follow widely-published US/UK/EU charts (UK = US + 4, EU = US + 32), and the body-measurement guidance follows the EN 13402-3 body bands (4 cm girth steps). For US 10 that anchors on a 92 cm bust / 76 cm waist band. EN 13402 sizing is advisory, not absolute — it standardises the size systems, not every brand's cut.

What body measurements does US 10 map to?

How do I convert EU 42 back to US?

EU 42 = US 10. The conversion works the same in both directions.

Why might my converted size still not fit?

How clothing size systems relate

The US and UK use numbers (or chest inches for menswear), the EU uses its own numeric scale, and Japan mixes numbers and letters. Most of the world also labels garments S / M / L / XL. Women's and men's systems do not convert the same way, so use the matching chart below. Fit still varies by brand — treat the equivalent size as your starting point.

Pro tip
Always check the brand's own size chart for the most accurate fit.

FAQ

Quick answers to common sizing questions.
QWhat is a US women's 8 in UK and EU sizes?
AA US women’s 8 is a UK 12 and an EU 40 (Japan 11, international M). The same dress measurement simply carries a different number in each country’s system.
QWhat is a US men's 40 jacket in EU sizing?
AA US men’s 40 (40-inch chest) is the same as a UK 40 and an EU 50 — and roughly a Japanese L. EU menswear is normally your inch chest size plus 10.
QDo men's and women's sizes convert the same way?
ANo. Women’s tops/dresses use one numeric system (UK = US + 4, EU = US + 32) while men’s tops/suits use chest inches (US = UK, EU = US + 10). Always use the chart that matches the garment.
QWhy doesn't my converted size fit perfectly?
AConversions line up the size systems, not every brand’s cut. Two labels at the same EU 40 can fit differently. Use the equivalent size as a starting point and check the brand’s own chart.
