I had the same experience, that &amp;&nbsp;converting Aussie sizes made me give up because I was&nbsp;totally confused. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-fit-predictor-function-work#post-1097737 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 20:30:05 +0000 Parsley 1097737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am NOT impressed with Nordstrom's fit predictor. The one for jeans seems to be OK, but for dresses it's way off, at least for me. For one thing it keeps telling me I need petites, but I'm 5'6" and usually am looking for longer hemlines. And the size it keeps recommending is 2 to 3 sizes bigger than what actually fits me! I keep double checking the information I entered, but it's all correct. Go figure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-fit-predictor-function-work#post-1097586 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 18:21:58 +0000 NDMom 1097586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura....good to know!&nbsp; I shop there the most! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-fit-predictor-function-work#post-1097522 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 17:24:29 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1097522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nordstrom's although I haven't used it extensively, seems the best - it appears to be based on responses to the fit question in item reviews, as well as the manufacturer 's size charts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-fit-predictor-function-work#post-1097467 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 16:43:29 +0000 NDMom 1097467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Diana.&nbsp; That's what I was thinking.&nbsp; Thanks for taking the time to answer, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-fit-predictor-function-work#post-1097428 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 15:59:59 +0000 Diana 1097428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No.&nbsp; I'm pretty sure they're based on the brands' size charts, which are almost never accurate as far as i can tell and don't take into account variations in specific designs. </p> <p>ETA: Maybe if you had measurements that actually fit into a standard size chart, it might be more accurate.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-fit-predictor-function-work#post-1097399 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 15:39:56 +0000 NDMom 1097399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have noticed that Neiman Marcus and Saks (and sometimes Nordies) have fit predictors to show what size you should order if you enter information based on previous designer sizes you've purchased.&nbsp; Do these work for you? </p>
