I'm a housekeeper at the University of Alabama, we have to wear uniforms. last year I had to get a size 20 in pants and a 2x in the shirt.. In may when we ordered them I got an 18 pants and kept the 2x shirt..we just got the new uniforms and they are all to big. We cant exchange them have to keep what we ordered. But the lady in charge did find me three new sets that some one couldnt wear cause they gained weight. So I got size 16 pants ( little big still) and a Large shirt. So now I look nice and neat at work with clothes that fit.:happy:

    That is SOOOOOO FANTABULOUS!! It's also great that you were able to get a size that fits (well mostly)!

    I always said I could weigh anything as long as I could wear a size 10!! I think dress size is a measure just as valuable as the scale. Great job!!!

    Take them to a local tailor and have them taken in. It doesn't cost much and a good tailor can make them look real sharp.
