Even when the sizes have stayed the same? I noticed a number of times that clothing sizes have stayed the same, but the clothes are larger than when I bought them before. I wonder if its because society today in on the increase when it comes to their waist line.

Interesting - I find the opposite to be true. I weigh the exact same, buy the same pair of jeans, same brand, same size, and nope, don't fit.

I do need to stop shopping the junior dept though!!!

Well, I don't know about the clothing actually getting larger, but I want to know why when I was wearing a 10 petite, the legs were 2 inches shorter than now that I am an 18 petite! I just got fatter not taller!!!

I have heard that higher end clothes are sized larger, so that you fit into a smaller size - therefore they make the sale.
