What is “True Size“?

True Size means the clothing is sized accurately . It is the size you would “normally” wear . Therefore , if you are ordering a Medium Jacket , it would fit you as a Medium Jacket. Now that you know what “True Size” means , here are tips on how you can find your size.

Know your Size: Believe it or not , there are so many women who have no idea what they wear . This in my opinion is quite disturbing because it makes me wonder if they are wearing their actual size. You have to know what size you are in order to be able to fit garments properly! If you have a size 26 waist and 34″ hips you would be a small (regardless of your height). Your true size would be a small.

Read the Charts: Most Online Clothing sits carry what is known as “‘Clothing Charts/Size Guides”. This shows sizes and measurements and what your true size would be . A great site to try is: Online Conversion , this is if you are purchasing an item from an International site and not sure what your size will be . It shows sizes by countries.

Buy according to your Body Type : What i like to do is purchase my items from stores based in countries where the people have a similar build as myself. That sounds like a mouthful and is a bit confusing , but stick with me , i guarantee i will make it clear . I’m 5 feet tall short , so i buy from mainly Asian sites . The average Asian woman is 4″9″ so i know when i purchase an item it will fit me perfectly. Sites like these will say “True to fit” but it will mainly fit people in that country.

There are discrepancies between different countries and manufacturers as it relates to the size of Garments . It is important that you always try to find websites that offer “True Sizes ” . Some of these are : Forever 21 , Wetseal and Urban Outfitters . Remember , “one size does not fit all”.
