if my tween daughter is no longer a size 14-16...

in girls, but the next size up, what is she? A juniors and/or women's size what?

this seems ridiculously difficult to find on the internet.

OP here. To be clear, she no longer is in Girl's sizes. So it seems we need junior's or women's sizes.
What is the equivalent of a GIRLS' size 18-20 in women's or junior's?

Size XS or XXS women's.

I am generally a size XS women and I can fit into size 16 girls in some things.

women's size 4-6

In theory I think it should be a Junior size 2 but my dd went from a Kids 16 to a Junior 4/5. A lot of the junior and women's sizing depends on shape. My dd got curves early. She was not heavy or fat, just curvy. Your best bet is going to be to take her shopping and try on a few different sizes.

My DD went from a 14 up to a women's 4.

When I was 19 and worked as a camp counselor, I wore a women’s 0 or 2 and could wear some of my campers clothes in size 12. I weighed 100lbs - not curvy, just to give you an idea of size equivalence. So I would think that a 14 would be a 2-4 (juniors size 1-3) depending on body type.

I found the sizing to be really unpredictable as you move into the smaller women's sizes - i.e. my daughter wore somewhere between a 0 and 4 depending on cut, brand, etc. She needed to try everything on to make sure it would fit.

Start with an XS or a size 3. Now is probably a good time to introduce the idea that clothing size doesn't matter, that all brands are different, that she should buy what fits and looks nice regardless of what "the number" is.

This.

And if she shops places like Target and Old Navy, a women's XS is usually close to the same as a girls' 16. I'm a petite woman and shop in girls' a lot for basic pieces like t-shirts.
