SIZING

in #writing7 years ago

Hello everyone!!!

I haven't been talking much with you, that's cause I've been quite busy designing and taking over the fashion world.

Brain not Pinky

Well today I want to talk to you about sizing.

In Nigeria, our fashion sizes are mostly European standard sometimes we alternate with the American standard, but its 1st nature to take our measurements with the European standard.

Thats why when someone asks your shoe size your first response usually is, _"oh I'm size 39 or 40 or 45", you don't say "I'm size 8½, 9, 12½ or size 15 like @iamed (this guy is a giant😁) which are those respective sizes in the American measurement.....

See what I mean?

So for ladies. I'll advice you get a body tape measure

You're already familiar with the

➡️SMALL
↔️MEDIUM AND
➡️LARGE SIZEs

European Standard

For small we have sizes 6 and 8

For medium we have sizes 10 and 12

For Large we have sizes 14 and 16

American Standard

For small they have sizes 4 and 6

For medium they have sizes 8 and 10

For large they have 12 and 14

And then they say extra large is 16 and 18 (no wonder they are the largest obese population in the world)...... Hypocrites 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄


Moving on....

Bear in mind that petite or children's size is 2-4 European and 0 to 2 American, like zero is a size🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒

MOVING ON....AGAIN

So please get a tape measure that reads in inches

If you're in the SMALL category

Size 4-8's e.g Me, @Myrah, @mizdais and all those like us....

Hips __ 35-39

If you're in the MEDIUM category

Size 10-12's e.g @amagod, she's the only one I can think of right now 😊😁

Hips__ 40-44

If you're in the LARGE category (well endowed people that I admire, cause no matter how much I

Bust __ 40 and above
Waist___ 39 and above
Hips__ 43 and above

Have you seen pearl jams hips 😱😱😱😱😱😱they don't lie.

Some ladies have different sizes for the upper and lower parts of their, you probably wear size 10 tops for your upper body and then size 8 for your lower body.

Not a problem, all you need is a good tailor and a good stylist like KATARTIZO

So thats all for your sizing. You can thank me later today when you see me.
