  • Is fashion truly for everyone? This week's video attempts to break down why your clothes never seem to fit YOU properly. From the history of standardized sizing to the current state of sizing systems, I hope this video lifts the veil on how broken clothing sizing is.

    My grandmother is a professional tailor. I'm very lucky. I pretty much bring everything to her since I'm 5'7. I've gotten to see her work many times and I'd say I'm pretty well-versed about dimensions and alterations, at least when it pertains to men's clothing. One thing I've noticed over the years is that you can only alter a piece of clothing so much until the proportions just look weird. Like there needs to be a certain amount of space between the pockets and the bottom hem of a sweater. Or between the last button and the bottom hem. The sleeves on any oversized top need to have enough length and width to work aesthetically with the oversized pit-to-pit. A lot of pants, particularly double knees, are designed so that your knee hits a certain part. You can only compensate for these issues so much with tailoring before it begins to look strange. Might be an interesting topic to discuss in one of your videos.

    I think it actually makes total sense that women's clothing wasn't standardized until the 1900's, while it began for men in the 1700's. Like you mentioned, the military uniforms were a large part of this. But I would also have to say this "phenomenon" was largely constructed by the way the working world existed in the 18th/19th centuries. Men were expected to work and present as the public face of the family unit, while women were largely relegated to the home and completing domestic work. Factor in the time men spent going to work, socializing, etc. in this era and it makes perfect sense that men (who have by and large been culturally instructed to value function primarily in their wardrobes) had standardized measuring first; less time tailoring and waiting for garments to be fixed meant more time to increase capital, as well as the lesser cost of pre-manufactured goods vs. artisan work (this last point is more-so speculation). Add in that women were (and still are) encumbered by societal expectations of beauty and it makes sense that women by-and-large wore handmade garments designed to fit their body best up until the boom of the second world war. With new expectations for how women were to present in the world (i.e. the growth of sectors such as secretary work and other fields stereotypically associated with women) and less time in the home, it really adds up that the introduction of standardized sizing in womenswear began to crop up in the U.S. during the 40s/50s.

    i think this is part of why oversized and loose-fitting fashion has gotten so big (no pun intended) it’s a lot easier to avoid some of the issues here when clothes are purposefully too big. i know it’s been part of why i’m getting into oversized. i’m a 6’ somewhat curvy transgender man with long legs so my proportions are an absolute nightmare to shop for, especially since i’m far too poor to get clothes tailored or even new a lot of the time. buying slightly oversized or loose fitting clothes has made my life significantly easier because i no longer worry as much about whether a pair of pants is too tight in the hip or chest or too short for my torso when everything is a bit baggy. obviously i’m against shopping for larger sizes when you’re smaller since so many stores lack stock in those sizes for people who actually need them, but my best fitting pants are a little loose in the waist and very loose everywhere else and i love them so much.
    clearly this doesn’t fix the main issues here, but i think it’s why oversized clothes are popular and it’s a nice way to help ensure you’ll look at least somewhat good if you can’t afford to get stuff tailored or shop for new stuff

      If your clothes don’t fit have them tailored but only if the item itself is figure flattering. You must know the styles, shapes and fabrics that work on your body. You can also have your tailor personalize items by changing buttons and zippers or removing unnecessary embellishments. If like me, your weight fluctuates, knowing what flatters you regardless of size is paramount. My grandma and my mom sewed clothes as a hobby. This 80’s kid was too cool to learn how. 🤦🏾‍♀️

    Hey Drew, great video, I think it is difficult for brands to get clothes done in the right sizes, because everyone has a different perception of fashion and a different opinion on how some clothes should fit on themselves, for example I can think a pair of jeans look great on you and it's the absolutly right fit for you, but you can think otherwise, and this different opinions and feelings about how clothes should fit on people come with the idea that fashion is something different for everyone, that's why it is impossible to relay on the standart sizes (S, M, L, XL ...), because they're not only considered in a different way by different people, but also among different brands.
    Not about the video, but I think you should get a bonsai to have in your background it would look so awsome!!

    This was great Drew. Thank you for this! I was a little frustrated when I was looking to purchase the ‘Manhattan’ hoodie from oree and I had reached out about the sizing because they’re using standardize sizing with no visual/model reference whatsoever. I get there is a size chart but the hoodie is cropped. I got no response so they simply lost a customer. Hopefully they as well as other independent / small brands take this into consideration.

    Great video as always man, particularly for us who struggle with sizing, really appreciate it as an awkwardly proportioned fella.
    #PVV It only came out last year but the singing on Dijon's 2021 album Absolutely really stuck with me, the rawness of his vocals and the straining and cracking of his voice as he pours his heart into his lyrics was stellar to listen to; particularly on the songs Rodeo Clown and Annie.
    edit: also love the new production style, feels a lot more professional/documentary-esk can't help but feel like a new 'fuller sounding' microphone with a more powerful, louder amp would really make your content feel 'grander' and would match this newer editing style, keep up the good work man loving the improvement.

    Clothes off the rack are never meant to fit perfectly. They are meant to fit the masses and as you know tailoring is always encouraged. Back in the day clothing was mainly custom until companies and clothing companies decided to mass produce clothes and along came standardized sizing. So that’s the reason why clothes especially leg wear rarely ever fit perfectly. They are meant to be tailored
    If these brands made pants to fit one persons perfectly it would negate them from making money cuz they can only sell to that one body type. If it fits your perfectly it would not fit other people at all.

    all clothes should be sized relative to their exact measurements, and people should know their measurements. i check the size charts on websites that have good ones or bring a tailor's tape measure whenever i go shopping and i have way less fails with copping stuff now. like, my fav pants are acne jeans that are a tag 28/32 but measure at a 30/30. also big up tailors for when certain parts do & don't fit

    Even as someone who gets all their stuff tailored since I’ve been a child cus my parents also do so, one thing that with age I haven’t been able to counter is having a big athlete butt. I’d be a size 30 if traditionally proportioned but because of my butt and leg muscles I buy like 34ish and then get them tailored. Some pieces are basically impossible to fix sadly.
    Same goes for my wingspan as my shoulders, chest and neck are very broad but my arms are normal sized so I also have to buy oversized tops and then get them fixed.

      I feel you. Asian as well and everything always feels longer than it should be. I've spent years trying to figure out a better way to deal with it and it seems the only way that I don't like is to be bone thin so I can have less of a chest size or spend a lot more at tailors. Tho another is to just buy clothing from asian companies or those with more asian sizing proportions.

    Standardised sizing is built and designed to incentivise the manufacturer and make production more efficient. Since the globalisation of fashion and online shopping the system of standardised sizing is being overworked. But the tailoring solution is good because it forces you to learn your sizes , but we have to under our bodies are growing through time inside our clothing it maybe easier to just accept that things don’t fit perfectly as a subtle reminder that all things can get a little better.

    An interesting perspective is also that your body does of course not define your gender. So as someone who is trans it gets even more frustrating. This especially extends to shoe sizes, good luck finding a nice pair of heels in a size 43 and beyond for example. And while you can get your clothes tailored for an affordable for most kind of price, a pair of shoes made to your measurements makes most easily bankrupt :/

    Hi Drew! I'm a fan of your content and i was wondering if you would ever consider doing a video on Korean/kpop fashion? I've noticed a lot of fashion channels Ive watched seem to gloss over the kpop fashion scene and never go into detail analyzing any fashion trends or giving any personal opinions on the Korean fashion scene, or only gravitate towards super popular groups (eg BTS or Blackpink). Kpop is known for taking inspiration from various other scenes culturally and musically, notably black culture (for better or for worse) and i was curious on your opinion of it, as historically black culture and fashion gets appropriated and never given enough credit to its actual creators. Ive seen in your previous videos you've mentioned kpops influence fashion wise and i believe you, as a presumable non fan, would be able to give honest unbiased opinions and not dismiss it solely because its kpop. as a kpop fan who's also into fashion and gained a lot of my personal style thorough seeing their styling id love to know your thoughts! maybe if not individual idols but a groups styling/identity?

    Pants really are impossible. I think that's why joggers got so popular especially if they have a pretty strong cuff at the end of the leg, cuz it's easier to adjust the length and still look decent. Usually the thigh is pretty big already so you just gotta get that right and adjustable waist a godsend. My only gripe is I wish there were some type of work jogger made of a tougher material, but I don't think world is ready for canvas double knee cargo joggers lol.

    #PVV The only piece of media that I can think of that resonated with me similar to how that Dragon Ball scene resonated with you off the top of my head, is when Zuko from Avatar The Last Airbender (cringe I know) says "I don't need luck, though. I don't want it. I've always had to struggle and fight and it's made me strong. It's made me who I am." towards the end of season 1, and "You've always thrown everything you could at me! Well, I can take it, and now I can give it back!" while he's screaming at the sky in season 2. I've also resonated with a lot of anime characters and their journeys, like Deku and Bakugou from Boku no Hero Academia, Rukia and Ichigo from Bleach, Naruto and Shikamaru from Naruto Shippuden, Usagi from Sailor Moon, Aki from Chain Saw Man, and soooo many more. A lot of Kid Cudi's songs, especially "love." have influenced me a lot. Including a lot of famous visual artists, like Kaws, Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, etc etc (wow I sound like such a quintessential hypebeast lol). I appreciate the way art/media imitates life and simultaneously helps us guide our way through life itself.

    It’s not really racist or sexist, it’s just supposed to fit the standard deviation of the consumer they’re marketing to.
    Unfortunately people who lift weight a lot like myself do not fall under the standard deviation too.
    Thinking about starting a brand for this as most brands catering to athletic are lame af lol.

    #PVV I got two. One is from a song lyric from Brockhampton and another one from the monogatari series.
    Brockhampton - San Marcos
    “When you're torn between reality, and a choice you could have made or should've made, they're not the same, I'm not the same;
    Maybe I'm broken, either way I'm clinging on closely
    I know it's unhealthy, appreciate your patience
    I know that I'm selfish, do my best to be selfless
    I know that I'm changing, I know that I'm changing”
    Monogatari
    "Many people will have lots of different opinions on what you did. There will be those who will say you did the right thing, and those who will say you were wrong. You shouldn’t pay attention to them. Don’t worry about what they’ll say. What you did was neither the right nor the wrong thing. You were just spending your youth.”

    14:25 This is in reference to the DBZ analogy about inspiration media moments. I'm not particularly an anime buff, I like what I like. But if there is ever something I recommend, it's watching Rurouni Kenshin Season 2 Ep 54 "The Tragedy of a Stormy Night"
    It's basically a backstory on one of the antagonists and it brought me to tears. It's not particularly hard to watch and I don't want to spoil what happened to Sojiro but it's an amazing story.
    What I learned from watching that episode is that bad things happen to good people in life and that's simply because the universe isn't guided by morality in a literal sense. Things simply happen. I've learned to stop being so judgmental but also really see and feel people's pain. Empathy can make you a stronger and better person

    I’m a thicker guy of average height. I always reference my chest measurement for tops to make sure they fit how I like. Bottoms are hard since my torso is long and my legs are short. I tend to crop my pants with scissors for the distressed hem or fold em. I’ve had some cropped, but I personally don’t like the look as much.

    as man who has a very thin waist size... (size 28) its a pain to find pants that fit me well because it seems like the general population of people have larger waists than me... like its a lot more common to find sizes 32-36, but not 28 or 29 ):

    #pvv not even a moment, the guy who wrote the OST to A Silent Voice, "Kensuke Ushio", is like that for me. It's weird, his music isn't trying to draw attention to itself, but for whatever reason my ears always seem to perk up when his stuff's playing in the background.

    For me growing up in an immigrant family, I've always known my body measurements because we couldn't afford new clothes- we went to Goodwill and tailored clothes at home. The only clothes that fit my mom and grandma were in the Petites department, which at the time only existed in department stores that we didn't have the budget for. It was common practice to hem pants, hem sleeves, add pockets to things that didn't have any. Plus, different countries' societal norms make it different to find a common "standard". I'm a M/L in American sizing, but if I were to buy something from my family's home country, I'd be more like a 3X to 5X depending on the garment because people with my measurements are very uncommon there. (And too-tight clothing is considered both impractical and vulgar there as well.)

    I be kinda confused tho when brands have a lot of detail for sizing. Im like 5’10.5 and 210. So when i see tall im like “well whats considered tall?” The same when i see short. Im also built disproportionately in the legs, so idk if short or tall takes away from how tight it will be on my legs.
