Some companies just have letter or number sizes and refuse to tell you measurements. Most give just 1-2 measurements if they give any.
But then there are the cool ones. The places that give a whole sizing chart with a dozen measurements. The places that have 3-6 body types and the shape is pictured for each garment what types it is designed to fit. The places where you can customize what sleeves, neckline, and hemline you want on a dress.
I don't know how accurate the cool ones are, but I would bet their customers get better results than from the previous categories of sellers. This is because many of the companies doing detailed fits exist because their founder(s) got fed up with the shitty sizing nonsense. It is a good business strategy to meet needs that your competitors are failing!
