Have clothes just got bigger?

[Oly5]

I'm 5ft 4 and currently weigh 11st 8lb. I'm trying to get down to pre-preg weight of 10st 12lb.
BUT, increasingly I am a size 10 in tops and find that I can fit size 12 trousers and skirts 80% of the time.
How can this be? I am overweight, I know it.
Have clothes just got bigger? I can't even imagine where all the skinny ladies are shopping! Tops must drown you?!

I put it down to heavy thighs , I'm an hour glass and have a very small waist but boobs and bum .. At 9 stone I'm a size 6-8 .. Tis odd ..

Ditto. Small waist, big bum

I'll join you on the unusually heavy club.

I don't get a double chin, always maintain well defined shoulders and keep some kind of waist. I am more likely to put weight on my arse and
legs. Even when I've been very slim my legs have been chunkier with well defined muscles. My knees, ankles and wrists have never been dainty.

I do have tops in anything from a 10 to 14 depending on the cut. I often get issues with jackets and coats! A 16 or 18 often isn't cut wide enough on the back so that I can move my arms but massive and gaping on the front.
