To Whom It May Concern,

While searching many websites and stores for clothing, I have found a fairly common theme: many of you clothing designers tend to think that women are not very well endowed in the chest area. Now, I might not have very large breasts, but I have a rib cage that could probably house a small monster of Dungeons and Dragons fame (and most likely does).

My problem is this: my "bust size" is the same measurement as my hips. While this was a fairly common phenomenon in the 40's and 50's, it seems, as of late, that you clothing designers have left those of us with perfect hourglass figures out in the lurch.

Am I to continue taping my shirts shut around the bust, or spend extra money getting them tailored at the waist because of your complete ineptitude when it comes to designing clothes for women who have been blessed with curves that kill?

Where on earth are us women (who turn heads as we walk down the street) supposed to find such normal things as coats, dresses, shirts, suits, and blouses that make us look as "up to date" as the women for whom you design clothing in the first place?

I thought I would point out this glaring omission from your "collections," as many of us hourglass figured women would love to purchase your clothing. Please keep this letter in mind when designing future apparel.

Thank you,
Undone

I too have that issue but its not my rib cage nor my breasts. I have wide shoulders, Im tall, big hips and yeah big FU to those designers that neglect the hourglass.

I will add this note-

Dear Clothing Designers-

Noone with a size two waist is six feet tall. Seriously, people. Leave the extra six inches off the bottom of my pants. Even I don't own shoes that tall. Also- why is it that 'petite' in clothing size actually means 'ugly, with seed pearls and bows'?

Oh, and ad to that:

As women get bigger in the waist doesn't neccesarily mean they get taller. A size...say...14 doesn't denotate a 6'4" woman.

Even at a size 4 my pants still pool around my foot.

Tall skinny guy adendum:

Just because I am 6'3", doesnt mean that I weigh 300 pounds. I would appreciate it if I could buy shirts with sleeves that reach my wrists, and pant with legs that reach my ankles, that dont look like circus tents when I wear them.

Dear t-shirt designers.

Some of us 6'1 guys are apparently 4 feet of torso with little midget legs at the bottom. I'd like to be able to buy a XXL shirt and not have my ass crack and/or belly button exposed every time my position is not precisely vertical.

And I mean cool t-shirts. Band t-shirts. Nerdy t-shirts. Not "big'n'tall" polo shirts.

Dear whomever the fuck we're sending off these magical request letters to,

I too would like custom fitted clothes for dirt-cheap prices. I’m tired of having to pay more or shop around to find things that fit me!

Oh and could you talk to the makers of Food? Just make it so I can throw random whatnots into a pot, put a flame under it, and have something delicious for my face come out of it?

Thank You!

Dear Seamstria, Goddess of Clothing -

Please stop designing clothes for me - I've plenty of clothes. Make some for people that aren't average-sized.

Thanks.

NOOOOOOO!!! Don't listen to her, clothing designers! There ARE people who are a size 4 AND have a 36 inch inseam. Please please please, I'm tired of wearing highwaters!

PS - Sorry Nixon, but at least you can hem them. I'm just fucked - all the pants are too short and theres not a damn thing I can do about it. frown

Please don't make low rise go away. I finally found jeans I could wear at a comfortable height (i.e. not like Fred from I Love Lucy) that didn't leave the crotch between my knees.

Dear Sorcha, undone, nixon, marauder, and all other women,

Please stop wearing any clothing at all. You will send a message to the designers, and I get something out of the deal as well.

biggrin - picked because it is the closest emoticon to "perv."
