Clothing size in Brazil

In Brazil, only letters are usually used to indicate sizes. PP, the smallest number; P, trumpet; M, medium (of medium build, with a bust of about 72); G, large size; GG, extra large.

Pants generally have numbers, and the usual numbers are even numbers from 34 to 46. Number 36 is almost one foot and nine waist. Some clothes vary greatly in size. P looks like G, or G looks like P.
