Compare the growth in womens sizing over the last 20 years

*UK women typically fall between a size 12 to 14. 
Shocking. My youth was spent with size 8 or 10 girls - that's where my brain still is. 

*In the 1960s, the average woman’s pants size was 8.

*In Europe, the average pant size for women has increased by two sizes in the past four decades.

*Average waist size is 38.7 inches in US (98cm). UK  34 inches (86.9 cm)

U.S. - That's my chest size!!! Don't tell me is was down to lockdown. It's down to greed and inactivity.
