It would seem that it may be easier, knowing your size, to come to the store and choose clothes. And so, a confident girl goes to the boutique, whispering for greater certainty: "Forty-second, forty-second ...".
However, the labels of beautiful and fashionable dresses are full of completely different characters: "10, 2/3, 40, 26/27", etc. And all this may be her time, but maybe not. Diversity is wonderful in culture, art, cooking, but when choosing clothes, one wants unification, understanding!
For this purpose, an international standard was introduced with letter designations. In the case of our girlfriend, her parameters are indicated by the letter "S". It is to this letter, and its correspondences to the usual sizes, that further material will be devoted.
"S" - translate into common
In the store products can be measured. Much more difficult with online shopping - they need to accurately understand all the details and nuances. So, the size of S is what is Russian in numbers?
"S" (from English Small - small) corresponds to our usual female sizes: 42-44.
Simply? And no! There are a large number of all sorts of conventions: "S" implies certain differences between the male, female and children's dimensions, indicated by this letter.
Its features - additional data - has "Esca" for outerwear. There are nuances for underwear.
Women
Before turning to a detailed description of international standards, it is worth remembering how and from what the familiar to us were formed. The upper part of the wardrobe is a chest girth divided into two.
For example, when 84 cm - 84 is divided by 2, it turns 42 size. It looks like the data is calculated and the bottom of the wardrobe, only used hips. Thus it is possible to approximately calculate the parameters of the bust and hips.
Important. The lower part, due to the difference of styles of clothing - free or tight - may not fully comply with this principle.
Sometimes the formula is used: thigh girth: 2 - 2, i.e. at 88 cm hips, a calculation can be applied: 88: 2 - 2 = 42 size.
Women's "Esca" roughly corresponds to:
- chest girth - in the range of 82 - 84 cm;
- hips girth - in the range of 90 - 92 cm;
- waist girth - in the range of 64 - 66 cm.
In a simple way, we determined what size of women's clothing the letter S implies. Go on.
Men
Russian sizes for men are determined similarly to women, but there are a number of differences. For example, the parameters of the shirt is not calculated by the size of the chest, but by the number of the collar.
S - what is the size of men's clothing? So, size S for a strong half of humanity corresponds to Russian 44-46. Other data:
- chest girth - in the range of 90 - 92 cm;
- girth of the hips - in the range of 94 - 96 cm;
- waist circumference - in the range of 74 - 76 cm;
- collar number - 37-38.
It should be remembered that the male figure, as a rule, is wider at the shoulders, but already in the pelvis (compared to the female). Therefore, "S" is the parameters of a particular wardrobe item, and in very rare cases, it may extend to all the clothes of one person.
Child size S - what is the height of the child?
Size S for children is also small, however, it is considered relative to other children's parameters, i.e. "small among small". Therefore, the children's "Esca" is about 32 Russian. Other dimensions:
- chest girth - in the range of 62 - 64 cm;
- hips circumference - in the range of 67 - 69 cm;
- waist circumference - in the range of 56 - 58 cm.
Underwear and outerwear
For the choice of women's panties enough parameters of the bust, hips and waist size S. With bras a little more difficult. First, a new parameter is added - girth under the breast. Secondly, the bras have a special marking. So with the bosom of the female "Esku" at ~ 84 cm, under the bust, as a rule, 68-72 cm, which corresponds to the size A of the bra.
Outerwear has its own characteristics. Added growth parameter. For Eski, he is:
- 163-168 cm for women;
- 165-170 cm for men;
- 110-116 cm for children.
How best to determine your size?
To accurately determine the size, you need to measure the above parameters of the tailor's tape (cm). You can do it yourself, but the calculations will be more accurate if you make measurements with the help of an assistant. His duties will include tracking the flatness of the tape: without sagging, utyazhek and bevels.
- Bust measurements are made at the most prominent points.
- Waist parameters, on the contrary, are made according to the smallest size.
- Particularly attentive is to measure the hips - these dimensions are determined by the most prominent points of the hips, but not the buttocks!
Now, any woman will be able to define her own parameters, and understand what the letter "S" means on the labels. Choose clothes should be based on these data, because in addition to beauty, convenience is also of paramount importance!
