Macy's made a corporate decision years ago to never go down that bullshit ego-tease marketing strategy of fake smallness on their size numbers. You sure don't ever have to buy their stuff, but if you are curious what your true, original standard clothing sizes are, try on clothes and hats and gloves there sometime. Won't cost you a nickel to try, and they still have a rep for treating people nicely, unless you go there dressed in raggedy jeans and a t-shirt, so yeah, douchebags, but sorta honest douchebags, at least. Size 0 - zero - did not exist back in the day. If you were really that tiny, that was a matter of getting your store bought clothes altered, which the nicer/pricier department stores used to do while you waited, if just a simple seam intake, or they'd call the next day or two when your selections were ready in the....(drumroll) Alterations Department. Free.
