The joint European standard for size labelling of clothes, formally known as the EN 13402 Size designation of clothes, is a European standard for labelling clothes sizes. The standard is based on body dimensions measured in centimetres , and as such, and its aim is to make it easier for people to find clothes in sizes that fit them.
There are several ISO standards for size designation of clothes, but most of them are being revised and replaced by one of the parts of ISO 8559 which closely resembles European Standard EN 13402: ISO 3635 :1981, Size designation of clothes: Definitions and body measurement procedure (withdrawn, replaced by ISO 8559-1)
Brassière band size is measured below the breasts, not at the bust. A woman with measurements of 36A–27–38 will have a different presentation than a woman with measurements of 34C–27–38. These women have ribcage circumferences differing by 2 inches, but when breast tissue is included the measurements are the same at 38 inches.
[5] [6] In the United States, although clothing size standards exist (i.e., ASTM), most companies do not use them any longer. [2] Size inconsistency has existed since at least 1937. In Sears' 1937 catalog, a size 14 dress had a bust size of 32 inches (81 cm). In 1967, the same bust size was a size 8. In 2011, it was a size 0. [7]

A couple of month's ago, it was on the news that all European sizes became one size bigger (ie. 36 became 34, 40 became 38 etc) so a European 34 is now a USA size 0. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.116.1.128 08:55, 4 March 2008 (UTC) Definitely not, it is just a natural process.
