    5'8"-ish, 130 lbs, 37-27-37, medium-small frame. Clothing size depends on the manufacturer but can range from a US 2 to a 6 in bottoms; 4 is most typical. In tops I usually wear a medium because of my boobs and shoulders, but a small fits better in the waist.

    I'm 5"6 227 lbs. I'm bursting out of my 14 jeans and I honestly don't know my actual top size. It's tricky because I have 38DDDs, so I mostly stick to one brand. Free people runs large and their larges usually fit so that's what I wear.
    When I was down to 170ish I was a size 10 and a top size medium. It's funny how when I was almost 50 lbs less, I only went down two (and a half) sizes. We all carry our weight differently.

    I have a weird problem. My waist is 32ish but my thighs don't fit into my pants anymore coz of the squats. I wear a size 38 slim suit and now I have had to buy bigger and tailor down. A completely bespoke suit falls north of 800 bucks and that will make me poor. Weight training comes with disadvantages.

    This is also why I have carefully avoided upper body building. If my neck crosses 15.5 inch, shirts bigger than that will fit like a tent.
    I can understand your situation. Having a hip size of 35" is pretty small for a guy, but also having a 27-27.5" waist means that jeans that fit well in waist are a bit baggy in the hips/thighs. While at the same time, jeans that fit well in the waist barely fit my hips/thighs. This is one reason why I am hesitant to gain muscle in my legs.
    Not to mention, a lot of T-shirts that fit well in my shoulders are loose at the waist, while those that fit well at the waist are a bit tight farther up. So it is with having a low body fat percentage…

    And I thought only girls have this problem.

    If a guy has a trim waist it is hard to find well fitting clothes. I've seen "Young Men's" sections various places that tend to fit closer to the body than standard men's sizing.

    Wow. I'm 5'4 and for most of my adult life have weighed between 140 - 148. I've only worn size 10s and size 12s. I carry all my extra weight in my middle and I don't like to wear anything tight but I'm surprised by all the people around my size who wear size 8s and size 6s. Interesting! Right now I weigh 138 and my size 10s fit fine. Hmmmm.

    I am 5'4" too and weigh 138 lbs. Also wear mainly size 10. Sometimes 9. I guess it depends on the bone frame too.

    I'm seeing people on here weighing more than me and in the same clothes size as I am. Perhaps they have more muscle/lean body mass and have smaller measurements? But then again maybe it depends on the designer or country?

    I'm 5'3" 135ish. I wear US size 6 or 8 in shorts and pants, S or M in tops. I think it depends a lot on where you shop and the cut of the clothing. I was damn shocked that I fit comfortably into an Express size 6 work slacks. Some of it may also have to do with muscle mass. I'm not jacked by any means, but all of my workouts incorporate resistance training.

    Wow. I'm 5'6", and at that weight I was wearing size 10-12 jeans and large shirts. :/ I'm 143 now and size 8, and I only fit into a size 6 when I'm in the low 130s.

    Even standard sizing is confusing with the straight & curvy variation. Women's clothing likely needs even more variation due to the variations in our bodies.

    Ha! Yep, according to this I'm a 2 up top, a 4 in the waist, and a 6 in the hips. Pear shape (of course!) Thank you hips! ;)

    Ugh it's so frusterating to me that people my height and weight are so much smaller than I am.

    Story of my life. 5'7, 155, size 10-12, usually large or xl tops (and I have tiny boobs so the top size isn't for that). I'm also fairly strong and fit so the issue isn't fat vs muscle. I'm apparently just huge for my weight.

    180# 5'8. Pants: 11/13 (depending on brand), Shirts: M/L (depending on brand). Dress....10/12 (Medium/Large)

    When I got off of deployment I was 165#, 5'8. Pants: Size 10/12 Shirts M/L (depending on Brand). Dress (Medium/Large)

    Not too bad with the increase of 15 pounds but still, gonna get back to where I was.

    174 ish
    38-29-41 (or there abouts, only measured my waist in the last week or so.)
    UK 12-14/US 8-10 the smaller size being a bit snug on my ample thighs but size up way too big in the waist so I usually just size down and deal.

    And yes, I'm heavy for my size, yay sporty childhood!

    I wear a 0-2 in most jeans, usually an XS or S in tops, and a size 2 or XS/S in dresses. This obviously is all dependent on brand.

    Currently: 5'4", 160.8 lbs, 10 petite bottoms (sometimes 8!), "Large" tops. This is down from Jan 1st of this year when I weighed 193 wore a size 14 pants (regular size, not petite) and a 1x tops. Working on losing the last aprox 15 lbs- slowly but surely and will begin weight training soon.

    I should mention that to date I have done no exercise other than LEISURELY swimming 3x weekly. I purposely slowed down my weightloss to about .5 lbs per week when I started to see signs of flabby skin. I am also eating high protein in an effort to lose fat rather than muscle.

    It depends on the brand/maker of clothes.
    I generally try not to worry about the number or size on my clothes. I care more about fit and style.
    If it fits wear it!
