Scorpio @56: What gets me is that size 10-12 is billed as "Large". Now that represents a sick culture.
As Julie L said, not only is a 10-12 considered large, it's really equal to your average size 8-10. So, as someone who is a borderline 10-12 in normal clothes and getting married next year, I have to try on size 14 gowns.
Which, although a little disheartening, is fine. Except, for instance, when I tried to go shopping at the non-profit Bridal Garden in New York. They sell donated and once worn dresses and give the proceeds to a children's charity--I thought that I could get a great dress and do a good deed.
Too bad that they told me not to bother coming in. Apparently, they don't have a lot of "dresses that big."
It's not their fault that their selection is limited, after all, they are accepting donations. But still.
