I totally agree that I also hate most online or catalog sizing charts. They are never, never accurate for me, and I always have to return stuff. Which is one of the reasons I like brick & mortar retailers that have a presence online, like Old Navy, since I can order the clothes, try them on, and then just bring them back to the store to return. I lose out on the $5 of shipping, but overall, it's not a bad deal. And for some of the plus sizes, ordering online is the only place I can find all the styles or colors.
On the subject of sizes, can someone tell me why bridesmaid's dress sizes run much smaller than the regular dress size? I had to order one recently, and it was a full three sizes larger than what I normally wear. The man in the store tried to explain that it's because it has "more seams", but that doesn't make any sense to me.
