Different UK clothing manufacturers / retailers having different sizes of clothing under the same size number.

Like say if you're a size 20...one pair of size 20 pants can fit you while another, different pair of pants listed under the same size number is too small or (very rarely) too big.

And the ones that fit you are never the ones you like / want / need.

Is anyone else getting this? Isn't it fucking annoying?

Wait until you hear about bra sizes...

It should be an easy system - the band size is underbust in cm/inches, the cup sizes are based on the difference between the underbust and the bust circumference. And yet I can buy two bras of the same label size from the same company and one will fit perfectly, while the other will squish my ribs and make my boobs spill out at the top.

I find M&S to be most consistent. But on a daily basis I wear sports bras too, I'm in the larger sizes and the good ones provide the best support

I actually settled on a model from Pour Moi, it's basically an underwired bra sewn into a sports bra. I do a lot of high impact sports and hanging upside down so needed a lot of support but they feel so good I just wear them while at home

I know the feel. I went up to an E couple of years ago and will still probably grow looking at the women in my family. My preference is a bit to the other side of the spectrum, I want as much structure as possible (I even looked into corsets but I'd probably need a custom one), otherwise I feel uncomfortable.

Thanks! I was eyeing Corset Story actually but my problem is I have a very narrow waist so usually what fits my boobs is way too loose everywhere else but I might try it out once I have enough money to experiment
