Especially between Asian and European sizes, there is a clear difference between them. This article will take a look at the difference between Asian and European sizes so that consumers can better understand and choose the right clothing size.
1. The history and background of the size standard.
1.Asian Sizes Asian sizes usually refer to the clothing sizing standards of Asian countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, etc. The sizing standards of these countries are influenced by the local culture, human characteristics, and garment manufacturing processes, so they are designed and produced accordingly.

2.Size Selection Recommendations When choosing a clothing size, consumers should choose based on their actual body size and personal wearing preferences. It is recommended to carefully measure your body measurements at the time of purchase, and then refer to the brand's size** to choose the size that suits you best.
Conclusion. There are significant differences between Asian and European sizes in terms of measurements, design concepts and sizing standards. When consumers buy clothing, they need to pay attention to the conversion and selection of sizes to ensure that they buy the right clothing size. At the same time, with the development of globalization, some international brands have begun to adopt a unified size standard, which also solves a certain size selection problem for consumers.
