I bought a vintage Marks & Spencer skirt size 16 (US size 12) a while back and I reckon it was at least two sizes smaller that present day sizing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102969.post-23220049304766570042010-09-12T17:19:03.668+01:002010-09-12T17:19:03.668+01:00Funny about American sizes.

Things have changed since. I probably take a 4-6 now even though my butt is bigger than ever.<br /><br />It was recently revealed that now men sizes are doing the same. Well- known brands are sizing men's pants at 36 when they actually measure 38-39 1/2 inches.<br /><br />So, people will pay extra to say or think they are a smaller size...<br />All is vanity - big asses and big egos, that's America, LOL.Annanoreply@blogger.com
