Princess Polly Size Chart

Australian fashion · women's

Princess Polly is an Australian brand using AU numeric sizing from 4 to 24, with a letter mapping where a 6 is XS, 8 is Small, 10 is Medium and 12 is Large, and its chart is published natively in centimetres. A size 8 fits an 86cm bust, 68cm waist and 94cm hip. The single most useful thing to know about Princess Polly is that fit is category-dependent: tops and dresses run true to size, but pants and bottoms run small, so most shoppers size up one in denim and trousers. Skirts and mini lengths are cut for a standard height around 163cm, so they read shorter on taller frames. Princess Polly footwear runs large, so sizing down is common. Australian sizing follows UK numbers, and the brand publishes a full international conversion (AU 8 = US 4 = UK 8 = EU 36). When buying secondhand, the size tag is reliable for tops and dresses; check garment measurements on bottoms, where the cut runs smallest.

Princess Polly uses AU numeric sizing (4–24) with an XXS–4X letter mapping. Its chart is centimetre-native.
