Female 52 size: options and options

They used to order this from a dressmaker or sew it themselves. Even women who were not very knowledgeable in tailoring knew that the main measure for determining the size of clothes was half the circumference of the chest. If this girth was in the range of 102-106 cm, then this female 52 clothing size will be without options, the parameters have never changed. Now everything is different.

The Russian 52nd was and remained alive. But he, along with other Russian sizes, ceased to be a monopolist in the standards and parameters of women's clothing. Around there appeared many other size systems, not only for women’s clothing, but also for shoes. Tables with measurements for men, for children, separately for jeans, bras, etc. And in addition, from different countries and continents - everything is different.

You need to understand this, because clothes with tags of manufacturers from different countries are now sold anywhere. And if in a boutique a dress can be measured and not miss the size, then you can’t do this when buying online. Knowing the exact parameters of all measurement standards is the task of customers who do not want to waste time and nerves on returning clothes, not to mention the useless waste of money on something that does not fit the figure.

Female 52 size: options

According to Russian standards, women's sizes from the 48th to the 56th refer to “women of ordinary complexion”. European parameters, of course, are much tougher. Female 52 size goes under the abbreviation XL - these are clothing parameters for the full. The most popular women's sizes in Russia are 46, 48, 50 and 52.

The dimensional grid in accordance with GOST (state standard) determines the main parameters for determining any size of women's clothing. There are three of these parameters, here are measurements of the 52nd size:

• Chest - 102-106 cm;
• Waist circumference - 82–86 cm;
• Hip circumference - 108-112 cm.

The rules for taking measurements are very simple. Chest girth is measured at a level under the armholes of the sleeves, on the back - slightly higher. Waist circumference is the narrowest point in the body area. Hip circumference is measured at the level of the most prominent points of the buttocks.

The centimeter tape should be new and in no case stretched so that the results are not distorted. To take measurements, clothing must be removed, only in underwear. You need to stand free to maintain your usual posture.

Important! If an intermediate value is obtained when taking measurements, for example, a waist circumference of 82 cm, then the size will not be the 50th, in which the waist parameters are 78–82 cm, but the 52nd with the waist parameters 82–86 cm. Sizes 50 and 52 are female parameters are very close, are one of the most common in Russia. Nevertheless, with intermediate figures, the size is determined in the direction of increase, that is, in favor of size 52.

Buying clothes one size smaller is a fairly common mistake. A woman in smaller clothes looks stout.

I, please, blouse 44th size

Right, forty-fourth. But only German. Women with size 52 like German buying clothes with their system: the sizes are just wonderful.

They remind of a slender figure in his youth. And all because in the German tables the familiar female 52 size looks so “gracefully”, the parameters of which are similar to Russian standards. Further there are reels and complete confusion: in France we will need size 46, in Italy - size 48, in the UK - the incomprehensible 16th. In the USA, in general, it’s some kind of 12th ... If you add international XL to all this, you get a complete mess with a female size 52.

We write and remember

Unfortunately, there is no single classification of clothing by size in the world; manufacturing countries have not agreed. Therefore, there is only one way out: it is good to know your measurements (recheck them periodically) and have a table of measurements and sizes of different countries with you when shopping:

Recently, it has become relevant to buy clothes on Chinese sites from Chinese manufacturers. So, the Russian female 52 size, the parameters of which coincide with the Chinese one, looks like XXL, and the 50th size is XL.

How to choose jeans for size 52

You will not find jeans of the 52nd size for yourself. The thing is that jeans are a purely American product, and inches are used in their standards. Denim sizes look like this: W36L30. W is the waist circumference, L is the length of the product along the inner seam (leg length).

The simplest method for determining your jeans is to subtract 16. From your Russian size, 16. If you have 52 women's clothing sizes, the parameters are Russian, then you need to buy jeans in size 36 (52 - 16 = 36).

An interesting feature: now almost all women's jeans are sewn from fabrics with the addition of lycra, they stretch perfectly. Therefore, when taking measurements for a jeans size, the figures must be rounded down (when taking measurements for, for example, outerwear, rounding goes up).

If you have a custom shape

Here, the rules are also simple, they relate to three main measures. If the chest is large, and its coverage is more than normal, you need to focus on the size of the circumference of the chest. The same goes for wide hips. Outstanding waistline in women is very rare, unlike men with their beer bellies.

Now it's time to think about growth. If it is less than 165 cm, then the European version of the 52nd will look completely unusual: the 22nd size. If the height is higher than 171 cm, then it will be the European size 88, it will correspond to the Russian 52 size female, growth parameters will be taken into account additionally.
