The waistband lay flat, it had pockets, and I got a mimosa. Photo: Courtesy of Universal Standard I bought a pair of pants last week. For another person, this is perhaps not a noteworthy experience, but for me, a woman who fluctuates between a size 12 and a 16, this was nothing short of a miracle.2. Find the stack of pants I want to try on.
So you can imagine how shocked I was to walk into Universal Standard’s Soho store two weeks ago and almost immediately find a pair of pants that I became enamored of. I don’t know how much you know about Universal Standard , but it’s something of a standard-bearer for inclusive sizing in women’s clothing. In-store, their sizes ranged from 10 to 28; online, they sell everything in sizes 00 to 40. Since 68 percent of U.S.
When I tried them on, I liked them so much I tweeted about them. The waistband lay flat around my hips. The legs were slim but still breathable. The cuffs tapered so nicely around my ankle. I could already see myself wearing them with a nice top to a meeting, or just on a walk to the bagel place down the street on a Sunday. The experience was so good that I didn’t mind that I left the store only with a new tank top and not the pants I’d tried on .
