| I buy a lot of my kids clothing from a Canadian mail order company
called Kids Only. Very high quality stuff, that lasts through several
children - but what I like best about them is their sizing system. You
buy clothing by the kids height! Styles are deliberately loose and
everything comes with adjustable waists (i.e. waist bands are big wide
elastic with buttons inside a casing that can be made smaller or larger
to accomodate slighter or more robust builds). They also line the bottom
of all their pants so you can roll them up and they look okay.

Who thinks clothing manufacturers could do a better job of sizing - and
height and weight seem like a better indicator than ages or arbitrary
numbers or letters. |

HI,
Help, my friends daughter is having problems finding clothing.
Does anyone know of a source for childrens clothing for
large children. She is normal height for an 8 yo but weighs
150 pounds. We found one dress in the childrens
department that was an 16.5, it worked well. Womens
sizes are not portportion correctly. Any suggestions?
Id suggest posting the question in soc.support.fat-acceptance, and
possible checking with Radiance Magazine
(http://www.radiancemagazine.com/ ) - theyve been doing some features
for and about kids lately.

I know this is probably a dumb question but...
Ive been buying a brand of Canadian childrens clothing and the sizes
really dont correlate to American sizes. There seems to be a size 3 that is
different entirely to a 3T. Its MUCH MUCH larger, like the equivalent of a 5
in American clothes. Is it just that this brand (Bravo! for kids) runs huge,
or is this really a different sizing structure? Is there 2T, 3T, 4T, 3, 4,
5? This sort of seems like it would make sense considering the clothing
Ive bought. Ive bought other Canadian clothing that is also huge. Are you
guys just growing bigger kids north of the border? :-)
Thanks in advance,
Marjorie |
