Yes of course. To say more then I actually would like to divulge, a large part of it would be practicality. Currently I'm one or two sizes too large in terms of jeans to buy confection wares in your average store here. They only go till size 38 and I need 40 - 42. (sizes go per 2 here, don't ask me why)
Hmm, I know what you're talking about, shopping for clothes can be quite depressing and expensive. My first child was so kind to completely ruin my figure. Not only did she leave all the lbs on my ribs, she also ruined the proportions. Before, if a jeans fitted over my legs and butt, I could be sure it would fit at the waistline. Now I don't have a waistline anymore, it resembles more the equator. Which means buying everything one size larger.
Heck, I'll be happy the day I fit into corsets again!
