I have to admit that this is an issue that seriously irritates me. It can be about impossible at times to find clothing that fits properly. I am fairly petite, but I would never think of myself as a scrawny little waif. I wish woman's clothing sizes were more standardized like men's are. Certainly, most females would not care to have the waist/length markings visible to the world but it sure would make things far easier to shop. I have clothing in my dresser/closet that is in range of everything from a size 0 to a size 6, extra-small to extend to even a size large.
I have to try on practically everything that I purchase. It is a real challenge for myself as I am not very tall at 5'1" or so. It would be very nice to be able to just grab a pair of pants off a rack and head to the purchase counter.
