    I'm 5'9".
    155lbs.
    A size 10 in most pants.
    A small in most shirts (I have no boobs).
    I have a size 4 suit jacket that fits yet the pants that I bought with it are 10s and do not fit again. Sizes are dumb.

    Huh. It's odd, I've never understood the link between clothing size and weight - what I mean is, I've seen ladies post that they are a UK dress size 10, and yet weight 160 or 170 pounds - that's where I started and I was a UK size 16 or 18 - not a hope in hell of getting anywhere near a UK 10!!!

    Me:

    137lbs (or thereabouts)
    UK trousers - 11 !! (12s are loose, 10s are tight!)
    Tops - depends on design and material.

    I'm 5'10", about 192 lbs. I wear a size 16 pants, Medium t-shirts, but in chick shirts I go with large or x-large.

    ok dude...you're tall!! Where do you get pants? I have a hell of a time getting pants that don't look like I borrowed them from Steve Urkel. The only place I can get long pants in New York & Company.

    I'm 5'11 with the same problem. NY&Co "Talls" are still a little short on me, plus I like to wear heels a lot with dress pants. I get my jeans from Buckle or Delia's, where you can choose your inseam. I get dress pants from Delia's, too, although they're a little "young" looking. I'm sure that won't fly anymore in about 10 years when I'm in my mid-30s, but oh well.

    I'm in a size 14 Levi 550 jeans @ 180lbs. I still have my size 4s in the closet and they mock me daily when I'm reaching for the double digit stuff :sad: I've always liked my tops to fit big but now the XL fits too well. * forgot to add my height @ 5'4

  • hi. i think it depends on your height and how you carry your weight. my sister is 5'6" and she can't fit into anything in the juniors section. she wears a size 14 and can't wear a 12. i am 5'7" and can wear a size 15 in junior pant, size 7/8 junior shirt (or medium), and in women a size 12 jean (squeezing into a 10) and a medium shirt. My weight is 169lbs.

    I am 5'9 - 223 - and I currently wear a 16 in plus size pants but right now am wearing a size 14 (waist 34) shorts from the Gap. I am comfortable wearing an XL or 16/18 top - I am very busty.

    I haven't wore a size 16 for probably 11 years - before I was pregnant with my now 9 year old son - so I am sharing this information because I am proud of myself. This is an accomplishment and I want to give other women hope. Why not share?
