Junior & Misses Clothing

[MsButterKup23 1]

Can someone please tell me what the difference between Junior and Misses sizes are? I am a bit confused. I am almost out of the Lane Bryant world and need to know where to go.

Thanks!

juniors are odd numbered; misses are even. juniors are cut a lot straighter: smaller chests, hips, booties, and thighs.

I totally agree with rmom, but if you're just out of Lane Bryant, you may want to try the 14W for that little extra give. Silhouettes even has a 12W, which also provide a little extra with style.

Congratulations on your NSV.

I'm so close to that I can feel it, but as much as I never want to shop at Lane B again I try looking at other stores and I can't find stuff as cute as there. Some years they are really good on thier fashions and some years they just have a bad designer...but I always know I can find something there when all else fails. You might try one of those stores like Marianne's that has the regular sizes on one side of the store and plus on the other that way you can try on the same outfit in the different sizes they offer...I need to take my own advice on that!!

I work at a clothing store, and a lot of our misses clothing are numbered odd, and a lot of our juniors are numbered evens. But what is correct is that MOST NOT ALL (lol trust me) Juniors clothing has a straighter fit that Misses. Also Misses clothing is much more mature, this is the section where you will find pant suits and more adult like dressy attire. Its also where most of the button-up shirts are located and the more dressy-casual clothes are.
