I'm an L in China, an M in Europe and an S in the US.... go figure!
I can usually get by with a medium or large men's shirt (don't get me started on the ghastly fare available in the women's department), but outfitting the lower body is a total crapshoot. Just got a pair of jeans that were customized in-store -- they started out as 46/32 to fit my thighs, but got hemmed and taken in at the waist and are more like a 38/30 now.
I've certainly noticed that too. Women are so variable in the way they distribute adipose tissue. For me all the extra weight goes on my waist. So it is all about the waist size. Though when I was wearing a 44 waist I really hated seeing my spindly legs coming out of those cavernous shorts. I'm at a 38 currently and I doubt that I'll get lower than a 36. But who knows? Now that I'm working out a lot maybe a 32 like in high school is possible? (Doubt it though.)
