Tips for Choosing the Right Clothing Size

Have you ever had doubts about your size when buying a piece of clothing and wondered which size would be ideal? Then this post is for you! With the instructions below, you’ll understand how these measurements work.

The sizes P, M, G, GG, and XG (or sometimes XL for XG) are clothing measurements that follow a standard convention to help fit garments to different body types. These acronyms correspond to “Small” (P), “Medium” (M), “Large” (G), “Very Large” (GG), and “Extra Large” (XG). Each size is usually associated with a range of specific measurements, particularly bust, waist, and hips, but they may vary between brands and countries.

Here’s an approximate bust measurement chart for these women’s sizes in Brazil:

  • P (Small): 82 – 86 cm
  • M (Medium): 87 – 94 cm
  • G (Large): 95 – 102 cm
  • GG (Very Large): 103 – 110 cm
  • XG (Extra Large): 111 – 118 cm

These measurements refer to the bust circumference of the body, not the garment. So when buying an M size piece, it’s expected to fit comfortably on someone whose bust measures between 87 and 94 cm.

Tips for choosing the right size:

  • Check the brand’s size chart: Each brand may have a slightly different chart.
  • Consider the style of the garment: Looser clothing can tolerate small variations in size, but fitted clothes require a more precise fit.
  • Try on or measure with a tape measure: Measuring the bust circumference at its fullest part (usually across the nipples) with a tape measure can help you choose the correct size.
