What happened to clothes?

Question

I tried on a large tank top I'm almost 200 pounds. Large used to fit perfect now the chest is to tight and the waist is gigantic.

Answer 1

Different brands or manufacturers can have different sizing or "fits." I found some years ago when I was in Florida at Bells (or Bealls? a department store) they were perfect - great quality, wonderful fit. Whenever I visit there I buy more whenever they have them.

Answer 2

Maybe you've grown in the chest, or the fabric has stretched, or a combination of the two.

If you're a young female going into puberty it could be that you are developing breasts and curves.

If you're a man you could be losing baby fat in your stomach, while your chest stays wide.
