    OK ladies, prepare to be amazed. We asked thousands of you to tell us what you think about your body – which bits you like, which bits you don’t, and what you’d change if you could. Just to make things fair, we asked the men too. And when the results came in, shock waves rippled through Fabulous HQ. It seems men and women have very different...

    The US goes with sizes 1,3,5....

    Canada goes with an even number 0,2,4,6...

    Basically a size 0 is a size 1.
    Remember that even though pets are here for such a short time they teach us things we would never be able to learn in many lifetimes on our own.

    I think the sizing depends on the money you spend...

    Odd/even isn't true - Reitman uses odd for reg sizes and even for petites...

    I've noticed anything I buy under 100$ I'm 2 sizes bigger than anything I buy over $100. The sizing was 4 sizes smaller on my wedding dress. The owner just laughed and said "nobody's ever more than a size 16 on her wedding day" (they custom make the dress and tag it a 16 if they have to)

    The more you pay - the smaller they'll tell you you are.

    We should just do it like men - and measure the number of inches around, and number of inches down! (Of course, they all lie about how many inches down, I think )

    I don't have to lie about the inches down, those that have had the pleasure of being on the receiving end of it, can vouch for me
