    5'6" and a 6/8 for pants with a 10/12 for tops (boobs and shoulder seams). It really depends on the cut, though: 38-28(to 27)-38 here.

    Just wondering people's heights and sizes all at the same weight. I'm 5'9 and am a size 4-6

    I'm 5'8, weigh 160lbs and am a size 6 mainly (occasionally a 4 or an 8 dependent on brand)

    which goes to show scale weight means absolutely diddly squat and it's body composition that count

    and PS - I'm at maintenance .. I would hate to drop more weight

    I'm 5'6 and weigh almost 150 pounds at the moment and I wear a 12 Australian size (US size 8). I was in America earlier this year though and I bought a dress and a top there, both size 6's and they are kinda baggy on me. It definitely depends on the brand/make.

    I think at 135 I'd fit into a US size 6, maybe a 4.

    If that's the case - I'm converting from UK sizes so no idea what US size I am - I've just dropped 4 from our scale (I'm a UK 10 generally but fit an 8 or a 12 on occasion)

    I used this site to convert mine:

    Don't think that's right

    I'm sure there are 4 sizes from US to UK eg a US 8 is a UK 12 etc

    Hi

    A UK size 10 is generally a US size 6 (but the measurements are generous so it's not an exact match- it's more like a UK 10.5 is a US 6)

    So:

    UK 6/6.5= US 2 (size 0/ 00)
    UK 8/8.5 = US 4 (size 0/1)
    UK 10/ 10.5 = US 6 (size 1/2)
    UK 12/ 12.5= US 10 (size 2)
    UK 14/14.5 = US 12 (size 3)

    Hope that helps. Also shoe sizes don't convert properly either. US equivalent shoe size is usually 1/2 size bigger too.

    At 5'6'' and 137 I am a size 6 (US). The 8's I bought are definitely too big already.

    I started at a size 12 at 165 pounds and I didn't realize how many sizes I would drop with 30 pounds!

    at 5'1" 135lbs, I was in a U.S. size 8. 9s would fit but would slowly slip down without a belt.

    I'm 5'4.5" and around 135 lbs I believe I was a US 6...maybe an 8. I'm 126 lbs now and typically wear a 4 (depending on cut though I can sometimes were a 2 or 6). Most 6's are too big now.

    I haven't been that weight in my adult life, but if my current pattern continues, I'd be a size 2/4 (US). I'm 5'8". I weighed in at 178.4 this morning and I'm wearing size 10 (US) pants.

    I'm 5'2 - or 'funsized'.

    When I was 135, I was around a UK size 10-12 :)

    I was between a US8 when I was 135lbs at 5'10". Hip bones don't care how much you weigh.

    I'm 5'4". At 136 I think I was a 6-ish in jeans. Dresses were most likely a 4 because I'm pear shaped. (WAS pear shaped).

    5'6"/size 4 sometimes smaller depending upon the clothing brand or the cut of the clothes. The difference is a matter of muscle mass. The more dense the package, the smaller the package.

    Also, in the U.S. sizing parameters change almost as frequently as the tv schedules. Consider that what was a size twelve in 1980 is smaller than the current size ten by about two inches in the waist. What was formerly a size 8 is now a size 4. The industry adjusts its standards every twenty or thirty years or so. The take away? Don't worry about the clothing size. Just focus on your own numbers/measurements/fitness standards.

    OH! And, a size four in 1900 would be about a size quad 0 today!

    5'3.5". When I was 135, I was a size 4-6 depending on the brand. I say 6 though because the US is notorious for vanity sizing.
