I find the whole "what size are YOU?" and exercise in futility.
In jeans anywhere from a 5 in jr's/6 in womens, to a 11/12 or 10/12/14, depending on the brand and cut.
In shirts, I will never be anything less than a large, the girls are to big.
So, there fore in dresses, I will always be at least a 12 or 14. In skirts, the same as jeans.
Bra's, forget it. I do not understand why bra makers think a 38DD need padding? I do not need padding, I need support! Hello!
There is absolutely no rhyme or reason to the sizing of women's clothing.
Now send me to the men's dept. to buy jeans, I'm a 31x34 or 31x36. Brand does not matter. Don't like highwater jeans.
A large in t-shirts, sweatshirts, coats, and scrubs, follow the same sizing, according to what I buy. No issues with cut, brand, etc.
