As a fashionista, I wear a number of different designs. I have in my wardrobe several garments ranging from Austalian made as well as overseas made, in size small to XL. Suprisingly, they all fit me!
According to the Fashion Technicians Association of Australia(FTAA), Australia was a world leader in sizing studies for apparel manufacturing in the 1920' and 30' but then Australian sizing standards for men and women apparel were removed in 1998 and 2008 because of the changing in Australian body sizes.
Other countries such as the US, the UK, China and Germany - have conducted large scale sizing studies and they have worked hard in order to find a sizing standard solution. Hopefully, we will all be able to apply the solution in our designs so it will benefit our customers .
