The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula takes the larger of the two measurements (bust or hips), divides by 2, and subtracts 20 to approximate the US clothing size.

Tips: Measure bust at the fullest part and hips at the widest part. Enter measurements in inches. Both values must be valid positive numbers.

Q3: Should I measure with or without clothing?
A: For most accurate results, measure directly against your body or over thin, form-fitting clothing.
Q4: How do I convert this size to other sizing systems?
