I've seen loads of threads on here lately with people questioning how people can be a certain dress size at a certain weight.

I'm really interested to se how much it can vary from person to person and if people who are the same weight and height could be completely different dress sizes as I suppose muscle mass is a factor too.

Anyway, I'm rambling.

I'll start it off:

Height: 5ft 4.5
Weight: 8 stone 12 lbs
Dress Size: 10

This is an interesting thread!

I feel I am quite heavy for size 8 to 10. I work out but not sure it's that.

Being a pear shape, people tend to overlook my tendency to muscular legs and glutemus maximus, and notice my small bust and face shape. They tend to assume that I'm lighter (and also much younger) than I really am.

Interesting what Grace says about body shape.

I've a fairly narrow waist and slim hips but big arms and boobs. Legs are slim, but chunky inner thighs.

So I look thinner in pencil skirts, scoop neck elbow length tops and heels.

Shorts and a spaghetti strap vest wouldn't do me any favours.
