To continue from poppycat's small rant on the topic, I'd like to express my large amount of disgust with the clothing store Tightrope at Indooroopilly ( Read more... )

I've found that business acumen is in short supply in some areas over there. Only stocking up to size 14 is ridiculous. What about cross-dressing men? Haven't they seen Priscilla? Damn the fasion industry trying to force men into smaller and smaller dress sizes. DAMN THEM ALL!!

LOL.

And here I was thinking that shoe manufacturers were the biggest enemy to cross-dressers. (Actually, I think Guy Pearce would have looked damn ravishing in this jacket ... but then I think Guy Pearce looks damn ravishing in just about anything.)

I reckon he wouldn't look too bad out of just about anything ;P

There is a definite consensus with you on that point. ;D

I feel your pain. Broad shoulders, big chest, long torso, short legs - nothing fits me properly.

Amen to everything except the long torso - I'm short waisted, there's maybe an inch of clearance between the top of my hips and the bottom of my ribs.

And those "short leg" labels you occasionally see on girls' pants? They lie.

Gahh, I am sorry to hear about the jacket getting away:( We definitely need to form a union, perhaps every non conventional size should take to the streets nekked and demand to be dressed:D

My ever-adorable bjoose has just said he has no problem with this, though he will physically restrain anyone who actually does try to clothe us. He's a pervert. :)

welcome to the world of sazzoid. I have the trouble of not only have broad shoulders, but being taller than 5'7 means all womens clothing arms are too short for me, the length is too short, and everything is just wrong. I have trouble with pants lengths too.. but thats what you get when you choose to be a 6 foot female (ok, i didn't choose it, but i feel the punishment is as if i chose it!)
I've been accused of looking like a man before. Thats because FREAKING MENS CLOTHES ACTUALLY HAVE REAL LENGTH hehe..*cough*

I'm disguisted on a daily level about clothing store sizes. One store here (I wish i remembered their name) has a sizing chart on the outside of the store.. guess what XL = ? 14! thats right. XL now is apparently 14. Now wonder poor kids have started dieting at young ages. The sizing is all fucked.
