European and American Clothing Sizes
|
At the request of our surfers we are adding this guide to European and American clothing sizes. We hope you find it useful. Please note, however, that in the United States there's no real standard for sizing clothes, and the more expensive the clothes are, the smaller the sizes, ie, a size 10 at K-Mart is probably the equivalent of a size 8 or 6 at Ralph Lauren. (As in, "you can never be too rich or too thin...") More expensive clothes tend to be cut more generously for their sizes, probably so the snooty customers can waltz into the store, saying "Please show me the size 6s...." Then there are other vendors, such as Lands End, who are very truthful in their size charts which makes it a lot easier for their custoemers.

Fashion and Design from Italy has been on the web since February 1995. It was the first ever web about fashion. We're working on a new section about Italian Design - industrial design that includes furniture, ceramics, bathrooms, home and office accessories, automobiles and other articles that have won prizes throughout the world and are exhibited in museums such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
