What part of clothe shopping annoys you most? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

As a 6'2 man the clothes I find which are right for my height are often very loose on me. And if I worry about the waist I look like a kid who grew a lot in the past 2 months and everything is too short for me.

Its not entirely universal, some stores are better than others. And I wear a lot of loose casual t-shirts so thats fine too. But finding dress shirts means some places work, some don't.

I have a body that no clothes will fit. A very dramatic hourglass shape. If I see something cute, it definitely will not fit me.

Nothing. Fucking. Fits.

The worst part is the bras. The fucking bras!!! Why are US bra sizes so fucked?? I literally only wear ill-fitting sports bras now!!! Otherwise my tits are squeezed or wire stabs me or every other pain.

I also have stupid sensitive skin & hypohydrosis, so rashes & heat exhaustion are things I need to think about when getting dressed.

I can see only 2 arguments for learning to sew. This and being able to add or enlarge pockets
