Ladies, what do you consider your ideal dress size ?

[Anumarie 17]

Honestly now that I think about I wouldn't mind being an 8. The single digits once in my adult life would be awesome!

Right now after a ninety five pound loss I am a size 16/18 I'd like to lose about 20-25 pounds, which would probably make it a size12/14. Good enough for me.

Size 10/12's to me are the sexiest women. Hopefully, I'll be there one day.

4/6. I'm 5"4.

Maybe this is just me, but I think having an ideal dress size is a little silly (it's totally fine if you do, this is just my opinion for myself). We make dress size into an identity, when in reality sizes vary widely across brands. I could probably pull on a size 6 pair of pants laying down and sucking in, but that doesn't make me a "size 6" and it doesn't mean that a pair of pants in a size 6 in another brand wouldn't fit great. We talk about ourselves like we a "are" a dress size, but we are the same size no matter what size pants we end up wearing. That being said, I know how painful it was wearing plus size clothes and I feel the same joy that everyone else does when our weight loss comes along with smaller clothes. So my ideal dress size is looking good in whatever size clothes I wear.

My perfect size would be between 6 to 10.. Hopefully i will get there

[Knitchic 97]

Size 6 dress would be amazing!

I'd love to be a 9/10. I'm 12/14 at almost 2 years out. I still have hope I'll get to a 9/10.

[starrspunn 197]

I was a size 24 pant and 2x shirt. 2 weeks after surgery and I'm in a 1x shirt and 18 pant. I would love to get down to a 6/8 or med. I'm 5'3 so my goal weight is 120. We will see though.

This size target continues to change through maintenance. But as so many others have pointed out, sizing is unreliable, store to store.

In the last month (while weighing 140-143 pounds) I have bought clothing that ranges from size 2 petite to XL. I kid you not! For the record, I'm 5'5" with bust/waist/hip measurements of 39" - 29.5" - 39".

A word to the wise: Don't assume when you hit the first new all-time lowest size (or one you've not fitted into for 30+ years) that your weight / size losses are over. I now wish I'd not invested in any new size 10s.

Live and learn.

I'm 5'6", ideally I would be a size 8.

[little_mrs 145]

I am 5'4" and went from a size 24 to a size 10. I love being small but still have curves. I thought about losing more but I'm comfortable at 158. I want to maintain in the 150's.

[Micdruss 213]

I'm 5'10 and would love love love to be an 8 but thinking a 10/12 is more realistic! I'm a 16 right now and started at a size 28w
