Children's Size Guide: Find the perfect fit for Children's clothing
Children’s Size Guide | Mariposa Children’s Boutique
At Mariposa Children’s Boutique, we specialise in Spanish and European children’s clothing in the UK, known for its beautiful design and tailored fit.
Because many of our brands use European sizing, the fit can differ from standard UK sizing. This guide will help you choose the correct size with confidence.
European vs UK Sizing
Most of our clothing brands, including DAGA and our Spanish collections, follow European sizing.
European sizes typically run smaller than UK sizing, so we recommend sizing up, especially if your child is between sizes or you would like room for growth.
