    5'9", 126 and consistently wear a junior's size 7 in pants.

    Women's dress sizes - I'm either in a 0 or a 2.

    I'm 5'4" 123 lb and wear a 3-4-5 My problem is my thighs! Size 5 fits my thighs but is too big in the waist and the 3's fit in the waist but are too tight in the thighs!

    Hmmm I'm a bit confused with American sizes but I do have shorts and jeans that are 5 and 27...
    in Europe that'd be a 36/38.

    I'm 5'9'' and 160 right now, so I'm kind of heavier I guess.. but I run a lot and like to think some of it is muscle weight! ;-)

    5'3 and 130 lbs. I have a booty. I wear 4s or 27 in waist. I bought a pair of skinny jeans that were Levi's and I was floored that the 5's fit :drinker:

    114 lbs, 5'4, and I wear a size 5, sometimes 3, sometimes a baggy 4, sometimes a thrift store 6(because older clothes tend to have smaller sizing) - but I don't have a 27" in waist...it's just over 24". Sizes vary tremendously...I have a 4 that I can barely wear anymore because it's so baggy it falls to my hips, but it's new - only a couple years old, and my thrift store six is a couple of inches smaller, but still baggy. I don't tend to shop at stores where they even sell 2s or 0s - the 4s tend to be large, so I go to juniors. At Walmart, a juniors' 5 is significantly smaller than a women's 4, and a 3 feels like several inches down.

    It is very interesting to see how weight and height do not determine one's pant size. I'm 5'1", 127lbs and i wear a size 6-8. My waist is a 26 and my hips are 35 inches. I think the hip measurement makes a big difference. I have always had a big butt, and I actually like my hip to waist ratio. I also have big legs, so I am happy being a 6 - I just want it all toned.

    I can't remember the last time I wore odd sized jeans ;-)

    I'm 5'2" and 146 and solidly in an 8 (Gap, AE). The smallest I've been was a 26 in Paige denim and that was at 106 pounds.

    crazy, I am almost 5'10 and I weight 157 and wear a 9. I don't think there is anyway I will ever wear a 5, or if I could that they would be long enough for me :)

    Why? Tall people can be thin and wear small sizes... they make long pants in small sizes.

    OP:
    I'm 5'9, 150 pounds and wear a size 4... sometimes a 2 depending on what I'm wearing.

    I'm 5'5", 151. I'm a size 8-10 right now, depending on the brand. Usually when I get down below 140, I wear a 6. My goal is about 135-138. I wore 5 in college - I was about 125 then. The odd sizes are usually Jrs and cut slimmer in the hips than the even "ladies" sizes.

    Im 5'4 and as i weighted 135 i fitted in the 27 jeans easy.
    At 120 they became loose.

    I had the 135 weight withh same hight 3 years ago were the 27 diddnt fit so i soppose its really all about shape and muscled.
