Is there a significant difference in womens clothing sizes in the U.K when compared to the USA. I have just bought some skimpies for the Wife from Victorias Secret, (USA Online) useing her present underwear as a guide to the size, (all from England). The skimpies have now arrived and although they look hot in their pink box, they also look a bit small.
Have I bought the wrong size?

I'm not sure about underwear, but with women's clothing, the sizes are two bigger for the UK. For example a US size 2 is a UK size 6, a US size 4 is a UK size 8 and a US size 6 is a UK size 10, etc. HTH : )

The US is known for tiny sizes. The UK has bigger sizes.
