I know everyone is different but if you are 5ft 6 and weigh 14st 4lbs roughly what size would you think you would be.

20/22?

Overtheatlantic · 08/05/2026 16:58

I think you would be a 16?

Griselinia · 08/05/2026 16:58

Depends what shop you go in 😂

Overtheatlantic · 08/05/2026 17:00

That was my weight at 5’3” and I was a size 20.

Don’t be stupid! I’m 5 foot 3, 15 stone 9, and an 18!

Allseeingallknowing · 08/05/2026 17:00

18/20

EducatingArti · 08/05/2026 17:01

I'm 5 foot 1 inch and weigh 143 lb which is 10 stone 3lb. I'm losing weight and my size 16 is quite big on me now so maybe a 14.

Based on this, given that you are taller but 4 stone heavier, I'd say 18-20

SlowSloths · 08/05/2026 17:02

18 maybe. I'm that height, but 11 stone and I'm a size 12.

cramptramp · 08/05/2026 17:02

I was a 16 at that weight and height.

WorkCleanRepeat · 08/05/2026 17:02

Im the same height and weight and usually a size 18

Rather rude! When I was that weight I was 20-24! Depends on build etc

PropertyD · 08/05/2026 17:03

18/20

Really makes a difference. I could be a 10 in M&S and not even be able to look at a pair of trousers in Zara

And an 18 isn’t far off a 20 anyway

To be honest I would have said the same

really? I'm 5ft 6 and at just over 13 stone I wore a size 16 bottom / 14 top

CloudyBayPlease · 08/05/2026 17:05

18 or 20.

Alwayswonderedwhy · 08/05/2026 17:05

Size 16/18

PalePinkPeony · 08/05/2026 17:06

I am 5ft6” and weight 12st. I’m a 14/16. So I would have thought an 18

TheDevilFindsWorkForIdleMums · 08/05/2026 17:06

I'd have said 18......I think it depends where people hold their weight tbh. I'm 5ft 10, 11stone and a size 14 but friends who are the same weight and height vary from a size 10 upwards !

terracottalime · 08/05/2026 17:06

I’m 13st and 5’7 and I’m a 12/14 so I’d say 16?
