Dress sizes vary wildly between brands — use these rules to shop smarter.

• Size up for knits — stretchy jersey dresses fit tighter; size up if between sizes.
• Fitted styles — for bodycon or tailored dresses, go with the larger of your bust/waist/hip sizes.
• Vanity sizing — modern brands often cut larger than the chart; read recent reviews.
• Petite/tall — adjust by height: above 5'7" often needs tall sizing, below 5'3" petite.
