Women's clothing sizes drift quite a bit over the decades. A size 10 dress is simply the mid-size in a clothing line...Bra sizes have drifted as well, to let women feel a bit more well endowed.
Womens clothes experience the reverse effect of bra sizing. High end labels size down (ie a "4" is really a "6") to let women feel LESS endowed.
Mens clothes have drifted too, partly due to the fashion trend of baggy fit. I used to wear "Large" back in the 70's. I am still the same 146 pounds but now I have to wear Smalls & Mediums...
