Made in Vietnam

This might be the end of diplomatic unity but I don't like my clothes being made in Vietnam. Not because I'm a horrible people hater but because I'm 93.7% sure that my clothes have gotten smaller since their manufacturing process moved from China and Indonesia - and it is not because I've magically become skinny.
Honestly, there is no reason why I should have to go up a size because your plant moved. Does 1in not equal 1in consistently around the globe? A yard is a yard, a meter is a meter and I shouldn't have to feel like I'm fighting a downhill battle.
It is bad enough that western society is trying to soothe the self esteem of larger people by changing the sizing system...I'm sorry but at no point does a size 22 = a size 2. If you are that sensitive about the number, do something about it...like exercise or change your eating habits.
Say whatever it is that you may but I've worked hard to get back down to a 14/16 and I'm proud of it. I don't want to pretend that I wear a size 1 and I don't want to have to buy an 18 because you want higher profit margins!

I wear a:

 8/20+ in Vietnam

16/18 in Indonesia

14/16 in China

16 in pants

14 in dresses

8.5 in shoes

2-5 in socks

Its called a:

16 in US

33 in UK

2 in Target

XL in Old Navy

M/L or L/XL in Loft

 

Can someone please tell me why I need an advanced degree to buy clothes?!

Sincerly,

The girl who wants her fabric back!
