The easiest way to visualize the size of the bows is to think in terms of dogs in shows.

3/8 bows are used on the Maltese double topknot. They are very small.

5/8 is the size that is usually used on Yorkie pups in the ring.

7/8 is the standard size of bow that is used on adult Yorkies in the ring.

IMO I like a 5/8 bow if it is just a fashion accessory.

I hope this helps a bit.
That was a great way to explain the bow sizes, as it gives a visual in ones thought process!
