Even modern patterns are getting messed up, like, they make them bigger than the sizing says. I've gotten used to putting corset backs on just about everything I make, or tailoring down everything.  Also, I noticed that a size 14 went from being 36-27-38  to 32-27-34. Like, tf, my boobs areally still there guys! So I always end up having to manipulate the patterns to fit. But thats the fun part right??
