Reiss to Talbots clothing size

The short answer

Reiss 8 is Talbots XS by the two brands' own charts.

Both brands publish the body bust each size is cut for, so every row matches a bust, not a letter or a number.

Every Reiss size read across to Talbots. UK sizes on the left, Letter on the right.
