I'm a medium
she's the size damn tiny
The sizes here are like 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 etc.... but I am not sure how they compare to those in Brazil, I am sure there has to be some sort of chart on the internet somewhere, will try and look it up.

yeah i'm gonna have to wait and see.
That does make sense, the sizes.
Nessa,
I just sent some American clothes over to my Fiance. She hasn't received them yet (anyday now), but it sounds like she is your size. When I was there I bought her some Ellus Jeans, and Zoomp, and she was typically a 36 or 38 Brasil sizes as well.
I sent her a bunch of different American sizes... 6, 7, and even 8 I believe just to see where she would be at.
As soon as she gets them and tries them on, I'll let you know as best I can about what size you would most likely be.

I searched all over the place and nothing.
I had my fiance take her measurements in centimeters. I converted them to inches. Then called some online clothing retailers, and came up with exact sizes.
For men, I think the sizes numbers for Brazil are similar to Europe. Probably for women too.
Does anybody know what's the american equivalent size of clothes to brazilian size?

yes thank you very much it helps
Nessa and all--
If you happen to be near one, and you want to find out what size you are, you should visit Zara. Their tags have Brazilian/European and American sizes on them so you can see the conversion (i.e. 38=6), and I found that Zara clothing sizes are the most similar to real American sizes. But if you shop in American mall stores (i.e. Express, Ltd., Gap) you'd be a 4, and at very expensive places you might be like a 2! The more American women pay the smaller their size tag gets...hmmm... but anyway, if Charles is going to buy you something from a mall store, I'd go with a 4. Although sounds like you're a "real" 6...whatever that means
