[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know what vanity sizing means.[/quote] It means clothing manufacturers are making clothes bigger so people won't feel bad about buying bigger sizes. The same pants that are a size 8 today were a size 14 years ago, for example. That's why the whole "Marilyn Monroe was a size 12!" thing is such a joke. She may have been at the time, but her body would have fit into a 4-6 today. Wedding dresses are often cut in the 'old' sizing, which is why you'll often wear a bigger size in them than in your 'normal' clothes.[/quote]
