New Look size chart
New Look has a size chart of its own, and here it is in full: bust, waist and hip measurements in centimeters for every size, on the UK scale. Under each table you will find where it was taken from and when it was checked.
New Look size chart in centimeters
The ranges are given as printed in the source. The row that two of your three measurements land in is your size; what to do when they disagree is below.
Checked 2 September 2026: New Look advises taking each measurement more than once and averaging the results — “to average out any changes in your posture”. The advice is rare and to the point: squared shoulders against dropped ones differ by a couple of centimetres, which is half a step of their own ladder.
| Size | Letter | Bust, cm | Waist, cm | Hips, cm |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | XS | 79–83 | 60–64 | 85–89 |
| 8 | S | 83–87 | 64–68 | 89–93 |
| 10 | S | 87–92 | 68–73 | 93–98 |
| 12 | M | 92–97 | 73–78 | 98–103 |
| 14 | M | 97–103 | 78–84 | 103–109 |

What to do when your measurements land in different rows
That is normal, not a bad measurement: the chart is built on a standard figure, and a real body does not always match its proportions. For bottoms, take the larger of the two sizes and have it taken in — a waist is easier to take in than hips are to let out. For tops, the bust measurement leads.
How to measure your bust, waist and hips
The tape stays horizontal and lies flat without digging in. Measure the bust at its fullest point, the waist at its narrowest — not at the waistband of your jeans — and the hips at their widest. Breathe normally: a held-in stomach gives a size that does not work out in the fitting room.

Similar brands
The brands here are grouped by what connects them to this one: some print close numbers — those say how much wider or narrower the same size runs — some use the same label scales, and some are from the same country. A matching chart does not promise the same fit: cut differs from brand to brand, and that is a separate question for the fitting room.
