[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 339698, member: 4040"] Back in the '70's, my dad had a revolutionary idea...a clothing store for women who were plus-sized that carried nice clothes, no mu mu's, no revolting polyester tents, but clothing that you could wear comfortably and look good in. He took his idea to the malls of America, where it totally took off, and when he sold one company, he started another, then another. You've heard of military brats? I'm a retail brat. Sizes have never been standardized. Cheaper clothes usually run smaller, designer clothes larger, along the lines of those vanity jeans. What ticks me off lately is the new sizing used by Lane Bryant and Target, just the single number, that doesn't seem to correspond to any other sizing numbers. I already know I have at least fifty pounds to lose. You can't hide that fact behind a cute little 2. Rant over...I'm done now. [/QUOTE]
