That model ain’t stout.
what is "stout" mean ?
It can be used as a synonym for both sturdy and fat, depending on context.
What we call “plus size” in the US.
Sizes 38-60?? Damn vanity sizing really did a number on women's fashion over the decades. (We're down to "00" sizing... I really don't know where they plan to go from here)
"Sizes 38-60" probably denotes waist or hip measurement
Modern sizing for ladies' dresses and pants (00 - 20s) is not a direct measurement
Still not sure what the units would be. 38 cm is tiny. 38 inches is larger than many.
don't know where they plan to go from here
They could go "triple zero", "quadruple zero", etc., but a better solution would be to scrap multiple zeros and use "-1", "-2", "-3", etc.
The best solution would be to scrap vanity sizing entirely and just use the actual measurements, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
They really couldn’t find a word better than “stout”?
We've come a long way in the last 64 years, now we have "plus-size," "full-figured," and "voluptuous."
It's interesting how words change over time. "Retard" used to be the politically correct term for someone with a mental disorder
For sharing images of vintage magazine ads, fliers, promos, etc.
We're going to play it pretty loose with timeframe here so please don't get offended anyone :)
