Title: Dress size and clothing sizes
Post by: Madison (kiara jamie) on June 03, 2011, 11:39:03 PM
hi i was just wondering if anyone remembers what there dress size used to be and what it is now, its really the only way of measurement that we would remember if we didn't do body dimensions before and after

i currently wear a size 8 dress or medium, and same for my tops
but i wear a size 6 and a small for all my bottoms, skirts and jeans

Well, "used to be" and "now" are a little arbitrary. I'm guessing before and after some HRT/weight-gaining or losing.

I'm the same size I've always been, aside from my waist (I actually have one now!). My tops are small, size four being about right... bottoms about sizes 2-4, depending. I'm itty-bitty! The waist didn't really change anything.

One blessing I can count - at least I can fit into the cute things!  ;D

What ever... Being 6' 4.5" and 74kg (never yet told being fat), wearing between smallest being a size 10 and up to 12, or 32 - 36 pants, tops mostly size 14, sometimes medium, yet fitted jackets 16 and e.g. Carducci not even a 40! (too small) and German size 40 again being to big.

You go take you pick. Panties being small, most medium being to big.

If it makes sense you're welcome. I did loose easily one size on top (shoulders) and been adding close to one size on bottom. Skirts just about still fit size 10, (32) but more comfortable by far in pants 34, 35 and also 36.

Greetings,
Axelle

I usually (often) fit into S shirts and size 2 or 3 pants (depends on the brand I guess), no idea about dress
