Does anyone know somewhere I can find the equivalent of UK clothes and shoe sizes for Dubai?

Not sure I really understand the question, but clothes and shoes here generally have various size options - UK, US, European etc.....

That sort of makes sense. I live in Spain but have just started working regularly in Dubia and wanted to pick up a few bits for my wife mainly.

What you are saying, if I'm right, is that if I was to go armed with her UK, US and EU sizes I'd have it covered?

I hadn't really looked in the shops up to now and got to wondering if it was a completely different sizing system... Thanks for the answer - think I've got it now

That's right, most of the shops are Western chains anyway, so unless your wife wants an abaya, you should be fine....
