[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares about "vanity" sizing--it's all just arbitrary anyway. You may as well wear size 'A, B, C' or "yellow, red and blue.' I think this is just a bunch of carping from thin women who want to make heavier women feel shittier than about themselves than they already do. I seriously doubt that fit, average height women are having a hard time finding stylish clothing that fits them well. Most overweight women find shopping a misery. Also, some of the PPs don't seem to realize that being short does not mean you wear a smaller size. Being short means you wear petite sizes, which are cut for shorter women (generally 5'4" and under). Pant lengths are shorter, arm holes are cut higher, pockets and trim are placed in proportion to the shorter torso. Petite sizes are often a size smaller, so a size 8 regular is a size 6 petite, but not always.[/quote] This is such B.S. Some of us are talking about the fact that clothes have become so supersized that we can not find anything that fits. Get it? I can not find clothes that fit me anymore unless I want to buy skanky cheap clothes at some junior's store at a suburban mall. OK? I am a middle-aged woman and it's ridiculous that I can't even wear size 0 petite anymore. I do not want to shop in the children's section or with my daughter's friends at Forever 21. [/quote]
