40 inches
39
I think that it goes up in twos: 22" waist = Size 8 24" waist = Size 10 26" waist = Size 12 28" waist = Size 14 30" waist = Size 16 32" waist = Size 18 34" waist = Size 20 In my experience the UK shops vary greatly so I wouldn't rely on it. hope this helps
You need to be more specific.. Where is the dress from? Is it a US size 26 or an Australian 26 etc Im Australian, so with the research that I just did on the internet a dress size 26 is on average a waist size of about 45" (inches) Which is considered to be a plus size, if you're not talking plus sizes please let us know. The inch size for a dress size 26 varied from site to site but on average it was between a 44" to a 47" I guess it depends on the dress itself. Hope I was of some help =)
A size 20 dress is about 5'8"
A size 20 dress typically corresponds to a waist measurement of approximately 38 to 40 inches (96.5 to 101.6 cm). However, sizing can vary between different brands and designers, so it's always best to consult the specific sizing chart for accurate measurements. Additionally, some brands may label their sizes differently, so trying on the dress or checking individual measurements is advisable.

Size 15
20-22
In her early career, her measurements are given on many websites as 36C-21-36, which is, in inches: bust, waist, hips. [1] Her waist was exceptional for her chest and hips; she had a 1950s hour glass figure (Think Dita Von Teese). I found here [2] that her waist was 19 inches! Her husband Richard Burton apparently said: "Her body was a true miracle of construction and the work of an engineer of genius." Such measurements would be hard to give a modern dress size. She would be size 8 based on her waist, but size 12-14 based on her bust and hips. [3] She was quite short 5'1"-3". So for someone of a taller frame such a waist would be unhealthy. But remember, it was her hour-glass figure that was so amazing, so for someone taller it would be the ratios that are important; not the measurements. Even as she grew older and was not so tiny in the waist she still had a great figure, but not skinny by modern standards. It was what she wore, not the size.
A women's dress size is between 16 to 20
30 in
Mens waist sizes are simply womens sizes + 20. For example, Womens size 8 = Mens size 28 and Womens size 10 = Mens size 30. To answer the question, a mens waist size 36 is a womens size 16.
