Can I choose multiple? I don’t think I’m the same size even within 1 store.
My size varies from Large- 3XL (no I’m not exaggerating, sizing is ridiculous)

It all depends on if it's Ralph Lauren, Tahari, Chinese Amazon, a Jewish brand, or Misook. LOL

Jewish size or not Jewish size?

(I'm usually a bigger size in the Jewish stores...)

As I told the shadchante who asked me this very inappropriate, intrusive and unnecessary question: I wear a size 6 ring. That's all any potential chosson needs to know-- and even he doesn't need to know it till he needs to know it.

An XXL and 2x are not the same thing.

Just an FYI Smile

I’m a 2x.

The size in my head, the size on my body or the size in my closet?

Sizes are an invention of the garment industry. Every company decides the measurements it will assign to a given size number, and even different lines within the same company will use different measurements for the same size number. Often this varies with the expected age of the wearers and the expense of the line. More moderately priced lines and those intended for teens and twenties will be skimpier, and thus you will need a larger "size" than for items from a pricier line or one intended for more mature women. There's even a term for this: "vanity sizing. " Because rich women don't want to see a big number, what would be a size 12, say, in a budget line, may be labeled a 6 in a luxury line from the same company.

Clothes from the Far East tend to be extremely skimpy. Sometimes a women's size Large barely fits an average American ten-year-old.

I'm XXL. I'm so excited to see that based on this poll I'm quite popular. Where are all you lovely ladies hiding? In real life I seem to be the minority...

Sizing is so different in each area.
UK medium could mean something totally different in the US.
To be honest I'm not sure my size I go up and down between XS to L.
If I'm buying a skirt I've recently been M/L but tops are XS.
Don't even start in dresses. can't do anything straight, or low waisted its either huge on top and arms or so tight my hips don't fit.
