I've never been a big believer in all of the fuss over so-called "vanity sizing". Everyone claimed that everyone was doing it, but I hadn't seen much evidence - I've been roughly a US size 28, sometimes maybe a 26W, for at least five to eight years.
However, today I checked out the current offerings at
MyShape.com, my go-to place for clothes that fit great. They only show you items that will fit you based on your actual measurements. Most of my very favorite pieces come from them, so I know that the system works.
And today I discovered that Jessica Howard apparently believes that I'm a 24W. But even worse, at some company called
Scarlett Dresses, I'm a 22W.
WTF. Like finding nice clothes wasn't already hard enough.
