there are some really cute bikinis online. but i don´t know about the sizing. what is "EU36"? Is that something different to "normal" 36? because it says "XS - EU36"

Teja · 24-04-2013

Yeah, I would say EU36 is normal 36.

myown · 24-04-2013

but why "XS - EU36"?

Teja · 24-04-2013

I don't know. I never go by XS, S, M,... if there are also EU sizes written next to the XS-XL.

softgrey · 24-04-2013

36 is european sizing...(french, usually- italian is different)
and is the equivalent of a american size 4...
which is an extra small...

ie- i am a 38 (french), 42 (italian), sz 6(american), size small (universal), size 2 (japan)

don't even get me started on shoe sizing...

...

myown · 24-04-2013

but normally I buy xs or s and wear 32 or 34 not 36..

diesanni · 24-04-2013

From what I experienced with Asos sizing so far...

6=xxs=32/34
8=xs=34/36
10=S=36/38

Always on the smaller side of the scale.

It differs a lot or their own brand. I own dresses from a size 8 to 12 that all fit perfectly. I'd just order both sizes. Shipping is free and they refund you quickly.

softgrey · 24-04-2013

yeah---it's confusing...
maybe diesanni is more familiar with asos than i am...
i am only speaking from my personal knowledge and my experience with luxury brands through work...

it gets more complicated as we get more global...
we are going to need to shift over to some universal sizing at some point i think...
:p

i suggest you buy two sizes and send back the one that doesn't fit!
good luck!
*edit*---oh---we had the same suggestion!...hahaha...

i forgot to even include UK sizing...in which i am apparently a 10...

I agree that ASOS tends to run small. I'd say go for the measurements (and google the size charts for other brands) rather than the size itself.

Any new codes for Europe available at the moment?

wondering the same for US? Is it just me or have they significantly reduced their promos?

Alstroe · 20-05-2013

Has anyone any experience with ASOS shoes? What sort of quality are they?

Natashaaa · 20-05-2013

^I have a pair of ASOS wedges and the quality is ok. Plus, they are pretty comfy.

Would they say that they were closer to Topshop quality or H&M quality?
