a size question
 

I would love love love to be a stable size 3/4.. what weight do you think id have to be? I know theres all sorts of factors like muscle, height and blah blah but generally, I wonder what 3/4 people weigh. I am 5'3.5" (all short people take pride in their half inches, haha) I have a ton of 5/6's from express but I really can't remember how much I weighed when I wore them.. anyone know?

I don't know for sure but I would guess 125ish? I am 5'8'' and around 140 I am a good size 4. But like you said, body frame and muscle work into it a lot.

I'm 121 at 5'7 and i'm a size 7. I think it really depends on your body frame.

I'm 130 at 5'6 and an 4/6. I have much bigger hips than waist though...so pants are nearly always a size bigger than tops lol.

at 115 pounds though I was a 2/4

Everything depends upon height, your shape and how much muscle you have.

Of course, if you read the weight loss issues of "People" magazine, everyone, no matter their weight, wears a size 8! I remember when Carnie Wilson was down to 150, they said she wore a size 6! She's shorter than I am, and when I weight 150, I wear a 12 on top and a 14/16 on the bottom! (And I'm in good physical shape!)

Another factor -- In women's clothing, there are no standards for size. A friend of mine once told me that if I tried on enough clothes, I'd be some designer's size 10! The longer I live, the more I believe it to be true.

I agree with everyone-- I mean, Lizzbabe and I are the same height and she said at 140 she's a size 4-- when I was 140 I was a 10 or 12! There is just no way to know.

I'm 5'4" at 125 (my lowest weight) I wore 7/8. I couldn't imagine 3/4.

I am 5'5 and about 142 and a size 3/4. I attribute this to an apple shape, my hips and butt are small. I think it definitely depends on shape, etc.

the US size vs australian size is 4 sizes isn't it? ie size 10 US is size 14 australian?

if so my lowest weight at 5'9" was 140lbs (65kg) and i was in a size 10 aus, so size 6 US. I love US sizing! :D

I think it is Daisy, I'm an Aussie too.

Heh, yeah, American sizes sound so flattering :P It's kind of nice to think over there I'm a 4/6 whereas here i'm an 8/10. Never mind the fact that they're really just the same thing. A rose by any other name would smell as sweet!

Livi

Im a US 12 according to this conversion website

Im 4'11'' I think and 137lbs

I don't usually pop in here because quite frankly my kids fit in this category better than I do ... however. My newest jeans are made by Santa Barbara and they are a 3/4. My Levis however are a size 6 so I dunno.

Any time you are shopping try on lots of different brands. I had on a British made blazer the other day that was a 2. It was too big ... ugly a sin but GIRLS! ... a size two that was too big!

I'm 5'4" and throughout about a 20 pound fluxuation am anywhere between a loose six and a loose four. I have huge boobs though for my height so I'm convinced that a lot of my weight is in them (range between a full D-DDD, depending on weight), even though they don't look that big. It really just depends on your build, your bone structure, etc.

At 130, 5'2'', I am a size 7/8

It really depends on your build, hon :)

I'm 5'4" and at 145 pounds I wear a size 8.
It seems that for about every 10 pounds I lose I also lose a size as well.
So when I started out I was 183 pounds and in a size 14.

But of course, everyone is different!
