Just a note - not trying to be rude so I apologise, but please inform me & educate if need beI wasn't really sure what she was getting at there but I wonder if it's because a lot of brands get shots of people of TV wearing their clothes and post it to Instagram tagging the person. I guess this would give CH more followers ths quid pro quo being that she also shares the post on her Instagram and her followers then follow the brand.
There are a few brands who have definately benefitted from her giving them shout outs (Scamp and Dude and House of Neon are ones that come to mind).
I have a couple of friends who are 5ft 10 but both slim and they seem not to have a problem buying clothes. One friend does find a lot of clothes are too short for her liking. I don't think the issue is that CH is tall (I'm not doubting she is) but she is tall and bigger than a size 10/12. I've not met her but would put her at a size 12 or 14.
I completely agree with her that when the average clothing size is 16 but considered a 'plus' size or XL there is a problem in the clothing industry.
I always remember a 16 being plus size- I don't however remember 16 always being the average size? Have people got bigger, clothing been scaled down, or am I remembering wrong?
I saw a friend of mine post on Facebook about discrepancies between different brands and sizes and how she cut labels off a pair of jeans because the label was an 18 but she normally is a 12. I felt really sorry for her- personally a clothing size is a number, if I have to go up or down to find a fit then that's what I do and it doesn't bother me, but it can be very powerful for people and affect self confidence.
