to find clothes that fit?! I have a shape that makes finding things to fit a nightmare! My current stats:
Bust (over boobs): 42ins
Waist: 32ins
Widest part (around the bum): 47ins!
Well that may sound curvaceous (and it is, if too much on the large side), clothes are not made for this kind of shape any more . I take a 16 top, a 12-14 waist and an 18 bottom (16 in some shops). So, skirts & trousers/jeans that fit on the hips are swinging on the waist. Dress that fit the boobs are too big on the waist and often snug on the hips. I just can't win :cry:. Anyone else?! I should have been born in the 50s, when that Jayne Mansfield/Marilyn Monroe type figure could be dressed easily :sigh:!
I'd love to think that with weightloss it will even out, but I know from experience it won't, I just get a smaller version of the same!
