[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP who said I wear the same size at Loft as at places like Nordstrom that have different brands.  I wonder why some of us wear different sizes?  Maybe it's the type of items/cut of items we are choosing?  I am genuinely curious about this.

For what it's worth, I typically wear a size 6, including at J. Crew and Banana Republic.  Can't wear a size 6 at H&M or Zara, though - I wear an 8 there.  I am also surprised by the 5'2"/150 person wearing a size 4 at the Loft.  I'm that height and weigh 125 and I can't stuff myself into a size 4.  Maybe I'm doing it wrong![/quote]

Me again - I also have an ample behind and bust, so maybe that's my problem?[/quote]

I'm the same size as you, PP, with a bigger chest and hips (thanks, babies). I can on RARE occasions wear a 4 from Banana, but it's mostly 6 or 8 (always petite). I'm still mostly a 4 at Loft. I also find it really hard to believe that someone who is 5'2 and 150 can wear a 4 there. Maybe there's a difference between petite sizing and regular sizing? I hear a lot about vanity sizing and to me, 5'2 and 125 is not TINY but certainly not overweight, either, so size 6-8 seems about right to me? So much depends on how you carry the weight, but when I see someone who says they are a 00-2 at a mall store (Banana, ATL, Gap) they generally look the part.[/quote]
