Are these conversions exact?

No. Clothing sizes are not standardized globally, and even within one country, brands use different sizing. These are approximate guidelines. Always consult the specific brand size chart.

What is vanity sizing?

Vanity sizing is when brands label clothes with smaller size numbers than historical standards. A modern US size 8 may have the measurements of a vintage size 12. This makes cross-brand comparison difficult.
