On any website for clothes, I find there are sizing pages where clothing is posted by type, ie:tops, bottoms, panties, etc. , then measurements are scaled for sizing. Most comform to the standard, but some brands run large or small, so it'll be hit or misses, (i made a funny) :D

Once you get a few things you like the fit of you'll find what size(s) fit your tops and bottoms.

it really depends on the pants, if they are low risers you can typically get away with a size or even 2 smaller since we aren't as endowed in the rear.  I would guess that a 42 waist would work out to a 18-20 in womans for a regular cut, and a 16-18 for a low rise cut, but as always YMMV.

the 30 length will usually be fine, any longer and you would want to get the same size in tall.
