Comments on: Pants, and the fitting thereof http://gaildayton.net/?p=209 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 06:07:53 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.2 By: Evangeline http://gaildayton.net/?p=209#comment-409 Wed, 08 Jul 2009 20:17:26 +0000 http://gaildayton.net/?p=209#comment-409 Vanity sizing! That’s why no size is the same in different places. I recall hearing that a few years ago, Express moved their sizes up (the numbers, not the actual clothing) because of complaints from size 14/16 customers that the stores never carried their sizes. So, size 6 became a size 8, size 10 a size 12, and so on.

Forty years ago sizes used to be more consistent, but then designers realized women would also /pay/ more to wear a size six, and so sizes started shrinking in accordance to the price point. I, too, wish to hell there was consistent sizing from brand to brand. *sigh*
