Seems that H&M are re-labelling some of their clothes after complaints that they are smaller than was to be expected e.g. a body won't fit in a H&M size 10 garment although they will fit in a size 10 sold by other stores and need a H&M size 12 or even 14.

Ladies clothes sizing seems to hit and miss as opposed to gents which simply go on measurement e.g. if I buy a pair of trousers labelled 34" waist, 29" inside leg that's exactly what I get and I know it will fit.

Same with e.g. a shirt: 38" chest, 16" collar. No room (parden the unintentional pun) for argument!

And then you ladies get UK sizes; US sizes; continental sizes and goodness knows what else!

Researching:
Sherwood (Kent); Jesson (London); Worboys (Herts)
