Custom clothing boxes are bullshit: Rant So I'm pretty small, not super skinny just petite, short and have smaller features. I have narrow shoulders and a small ribcage but I have wide hips and a booty. I have a hard time finding clothes because dresses are too long and look weird or they're too big at the top while fitting on the bottom. There are high end clothing lines like Banana Republic that do not make dresses small enough for me. I also hate shopping but I need to dress professional for work. So I started trying these custom clothing boxes like mm.lafleur and stitch fix that boast that they customize the boxes to your size, body shape and preferences. I was thinking it could be great because maybe if they understand my clothing woes that they would send me things that fit. No such luck, some things like pants fit but the dresses were still too long/big. I saw another one today called eShakti that says "Real Fashion for Real People" and also had some ad about customizing to body types. I scrolled through their FB page and kept thinking "None of these women are as small as me, in fact most of them are small fats" so of course I have no interest in even trying that one. Fats always complain they can't find clothes that fit when most of them could just lose weight and probably fit into the normal sizes but being short and tiny I never find anything and I have to shop in the Juniors section even though I'm 28. Vanity sizing makes it even worse. I can barely get away with a Brooks Brothers XS button up. UGH
