Tried on size 16 shirts at Dorothy Perkins and H&M yesterday, and nope, too small. Strangely enough size 16 Peacocks jeans fit perfectly, and size 16 M&S skirts fit fine too, maybe it's because I'm a top heavy apple shape.

When I was at H&M the other day, I tried on a dress that fit me (tightly) as a UK size 10. I'm sure my bottoms are bigger than that, because I'm more pear-shaped, so UK size 12 for the legs (at least).
In American/Canadian sizes, I wear size 8 pants, but they're getting looser. And a size 4-6 top.

Currently size 12 downstairs, size 10 upstairs (smallest since I was a kid!). Whilst my top size is still getting smaller, I've been stuck in size 12 jeans etc... for a while now, and pretty sure that it's down to the excess skin on my lower belly. Bra is down to a measly 34B/C (from a 44EE two years ago).

I am 5ft 7" and weigh 185lbs at the moment. I'm currently in UK size 16 bottom and size 12 - 14 top. I am a 38DD bra size. This is so depressing... I found some of my old size 10 trousers today and I used to look so good in them. I would not even get them up past my thighs now

Trousers with defined waistband, am just on the cusp of 14, ie not fitting in every shop, but 16 a bit big in all shops
By the way, I am talking in UK/Irish sizes here (Size 14 = Us size 10 and so on)
Just interested in this - and also if anyone has specific comments about different shop's sizing???...if anyone wants to post, please include your height
Thanks

Thought should do a little update now...
Am still 5"9!
I now weigh 11st 10lbs
Am pretty much a size 12 everywhere, with the very odd exception of having to try a 14 - in say a tight fitting dress...
in some jeans I would be a 28 or 29" waist, but often then they are too tight on thighs

At my highest weight of 210 I was an 18 on top and bottoms, but I pretty much lived in stretch jeans and cheap, plain tops from Primark, so I'm sure something tailored would have had to be bigger. I had a pair of size 16 trousers from BHS that I pretty much exclusively wore to work, alongside a size 18 from new look that were just way too big.
Now I'm hovering around 190 and I can wear a size 16 in jeans with or without stretch, although without stretch are still tight around the tops of the thighs (I have chunky legs and a big round bum) and I have to invent new ways to cover up the muffin top, but hopefully not for long!
I also had a breakthrough in Primark yesterday, where I fit into a size 14 jacket! My shoulders are much smaller now, but my belly is still pretty big so doing up the button is a no no, but again, not for long I'm excited to fit into a 14 properly again in bottoms especially!

Like most of you it depends on the shop with me.
I'm 5'4, 168lbs and very pear shaped! Got 34D boobs and am sometimes a 14 on top and bottom but motly a 14 on top and 16 on bottom. I can sometimes fit into size 12 dresses as I have a weirdly small waist and shoulders in comparison to my hips and thighs.
