Hanfu sizing is best read as a measurement system, not a fixed international size chart. A customer who usually wears a US 6, UK 10, or EU 38 may still need a different Hanfu size depending on bust, waist, shoulder width, sleeve length, and skirt length.
Measure over light clothing
Use a soft tape measure and keep it flat. Measure bust at the fullest point, waist where the skirt will sit, shoulder from edge to edge, and height without shoes. For layered Hanfu, leave a little room so the outfit can move comfortably.
Pay attention to skirt length
Skirt length is one of the most important details for overseas buyers. If you plan to wear platform shoes or heels, factor that into the total length. If you prefer easy walking, choose a length that does not drag on the floor.
When to size up
Size up when the top has a structured shoulder, when the fabric has no stretch, or when your bust measurement is close to the upper limit. For wrap-style or relaxed tops, waist and height may matter more than bust.
