Could you please translate the size chart for me? These are\u00a0common questions asked by our customers who\u00a0buy custom sizing cosplay costumes from China Taobao.<\/p>\n<p>This article will resolve your confusion and help you save time if you usually buy cosplay from Taobao costume store. Now, let\u2019s begin.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">General cosplay costumes<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Usually, <\/b><\/strong><strong><b>we can get costumes size chart on item<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>\u2019<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>s web-page for reference<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>, <\/b><\/strong><strong><b>but the problem is that some Taobao sellers put size chart as a picture. As a result, it&#8217;s impossible for customers to translate even if they are on Taobao English page.\u00a0<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Please don\u2019t worry, it will be easier if you can learn and know the following Chinese characters.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\u6027\u522b\uff08x\u00ecng bi\u00e9)- Gender<\/p>\n<p>\u8eab\u9ad8(sh\u0113n g\u0101o) &#8211; Height<\/p>\n<p>\u4f53\u91cd(t\u01d0 zh\u00f2ng)- Weight<\/p>\n<p>\u80f8\u56f4(xi\u014dng w\u00e9i) &#8211; Bust\/chest<\/p>\n<p>\u8170\u56f4(y\u0101o w\u00e9i)- Waist<\/p>\n<p>\u81c0\u56f4(t\u00fan w\u00e9i) &#8211; Hips<\/p>\n<p>\u80a9\u5bbd( ji\u0101n ku\u0101n) &#8211; Shoulder width<\/p>\n<p>\u7537 (n\u00e1n) &#8211; Male<\/p>\n<p>\u5973 (n\u01da) &#8211; Female<\/p>\n<p>Generally, for some very special and complicated made costumes, you may find more information from size chart. For common cosplay costumes, you can only care about the 7 most important measurements mentioned above.<\/p>\n<p>What? It is a bit difficult. Well, this is indeed a big problem as you may find some measurements fit you but the rest not. Now, let\u2019s make it simple. If you want seller to recommend costumes size, please note us your height and weight when you place order. In China, sellers usually\u00a0provide recommendation only according to the 2 pieces of information. However, some sellers will not give a hand to you. Why? They are afraid\u00a0that the item will be returned or we apply for refund if you\u00a0find the item is unsuitable in fact.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, what we need to mention is that, different sellers have different size standards in China. So, you have to pay more attention to each type of clothes and even pay attention to the cloth material. And often, size table on seller web-page is measured by hands, it can have 1-3 cm difference.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Customized Cosplay<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><b>After discussing general cosplay clothes<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>, y<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>ou may have this question<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>\u00a0&#8211; h<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>ow about customized clothes<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>? W<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>hat size information should I provide if I want to buy plus size cosplay<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>? <\/b><\/strong><strong><b>And how to measure properly for\u00a0costumes size?<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In order to speed your order process, we kindly advise you to remark your detailed measurement when placing order. \u00a0Not too much, the main size is OK, including gender, height, weight, chest\/bust, waist, hips, shoulder width. If there is sleeve on the costumes, also please provide sleeve length, arm circumference, and wrist circumference. We will reply you under the item, or mail you directly if seller has special requirement. 90% cases just need 7\u00a0main measurements. Sure, we will still appreciate if you are willing to provide more information as it can help tailor during making, especially for plus size costumes.<\/p>\n<p>Now let&#8217;s introduce you the correct measuring way. Firstly, please prepare a soft tape, and then measure as per the following picture. Make sure that when you circle your chest, waist, hips or others, the tape is level and neither too tight nor too loose.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">ATTENTION: IT SHOULD BE BARE SKIN \/ BODY SIZE, NOT OVER CLOTHES.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-403\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.taobaoring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/cosplay-size.png?resize=648%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"TaobaoRing-custom-size\" width=\"648\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.42agent.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/cosplay-size.png?w=665&amp;ssl=1 665w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.42agent.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/cosplay-size.png?resize=600%2C463&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.42agent.com\/docs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/cosplay-size.png?resize=300%2C231&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 648px) 100vw, 648px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Except 7\u00a0main sizes, the following measurements are often used for some costumes:<\/p>\n<p>Arm circumference<\/p>\n<p>Forearm circumference<\/p>\n<p>Wrist circumference (circumference of waistline)<\/p>\n<p>Sleeve\/arm length (from shoulder to wrist)<\/p>\n<p>Pants\/leg length (from waist to ankle)<\/p>\n<p>Inseam (from crotch to ankle)<\/p>\n<p>Thigh circumference<\/p>\n<p>Calf circumference<\/p>\n<p>Ankle circumference<\/p>\n<p>Neck circumference<\/p>\n<p>You can remark us as from \u2026 to \u2026\u00a0(such as from shoulder to wrist), if you are afraid of causing error or misunderstanding.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, please provide weight by KG (kilogram) and other measurements by CM (centimeters).
