That's Fit

For someone who is 4'11'' and petite, I beg that manufacturers continue to offer these petite two, zero, or double zero sizes. In an era where waist lines are doubling and petite departments in most stores are shrinking, it's already nearly impossible for many of us normal, non-anorexics, to shop let alone find a good selection of clothing and shoes...and please, we don't want to be relegated to shopping in children's departments!

I think that modeling agencies are always looking for men and women with perfect, flawless figures. They often think of a size 0 as being the ideal size for a woman. I think that since normal, healthy, beautiful people come in all different shapes and sizes, so should models. There is nothing beautiful about starving yourself and trying to fit the description of a perfect body. Modeling agencies should look for healthy, beautiful people of all sizes. Being different is beautiful.

I wear a zero, and as you know ... am uber fit! My trim appearance may not be everyone's favorite 'look', but I'm healthy and I feel good at this weight. It's already really hard to find clothes small enough to fit. In fact, last year I couldn't find any casual sweatpants or yoga pants to wear during the cold weather, because nothing was small enough. Really. Zero is just another size. Just like fives and twelves ... it's just a number to match with a particular body. We're all different and all fine. Fitz

Slim models will always be in. "Should" be healthy is a far off notion. Garments hanging on a bone canvas will be preferable for the forseeable future.
Though, I am a 4'10'' size zero (wearing the jeans at this moment). These were the only pair that fit in the entire mall!

I am happy all the petite persons are speaking up, there is nothing wrong with small sizes if the person is healthy and/or have a high metabolic rate. I wear mostly a size 1 and an occasional 0, I'm 5'3" and have no problem with my size or my weight. I eat the foods that I love and Often try to eat the healthy things along with my occasional work out. I also have no intentions of putting on weight unless it is a sickness or pregnancy both of which I may have control over.
I also have no problem with curvy women, it should be embraced and if the person is healthy, it makes it even greater.
I urge people to stop the discriminations against petite and curvy people who are healthy and happy.

I don't think any clothing size should disappear. I personally prefer skinny models- they showcase the clothes better. However, if designers want to use larger models, that's up to them. I think they have the right to pick. Consumers can express their disgust by not buying from them if they so desire.
As a 5'7" size 2 with very long legs, I also have trouble finding pants. I can find size 2's easily, but they are nearly always petites. I need long, and sometimes extra-long (if I plan on wearing them with heels).
The population is getting taller. We're also getting fatter as a society, but there's a small percentage of us who put forth great effort to stay fit, so there will always be size 00s, 0s and 2s. I don't think I should feel bad about keeping myself healthy, and I don't appreciate the 13-year old boy comment. Just because I don't have 20 pounds of lard hanging off my ass doesn't make me less of a woman.

I'm curious whether size 2s and 0s out there have always worn those sizes. I was under the impression that while America's waistline is growing, so are pants sizes -- so what used to be size 16 (fifteen years ago) is now called size 12. So, has size 0 always existed?

I am 5' 4", and cannot find clothing that fits. I am small framed, healthy, long legged. I need jeans, pants, etc. I did seasonally work in a department store, saw plenty of bargains, not in my size. I am a 0 or sometimes a two. I never have and never will be on a diet, so, some of the rude remarks made to me during my life are not just.

My wife is 4'11" and weighs 95lbs. Shopping is infuriating for her. And yes, the sizes are being "scaled" to keep the newly obese happy. My wife has gone from a size 4 to a size 0 and recently 00 over the last 20 years --- all without a single inch of change to her body (and yes, she's got a good figure).
It is very rarely for a store to carry less than size 4 anymore.

We're seriously thinking of going to Tokyo specifically to buy her clothing for the rest of her life.....

small rant: 40% of Americans are now *OBESE* (not overweight, obese which means look forward to diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, all the secondary complications) -- yes, anorexia is terrible but lets focus on the avalanche of medical disaster a bit more shall we?
