*Hey ZARA, I'm calling you out.*


I took a trip to ZARA to try on a few denim jeans. I grabbed a pair in size US 0 / EU 32 + size US 2 / EU 34.


They both fit.


I want to start by saying, it's just a number. It doesn't define you, your worth, your body, anything. It's an illusion, anyway. Merely, a guide when shopping for clothing.


All brands size differently.


As a reference, I go from size US 0 - 6 depending on the brand and where it's made.


US Sizing is different. AU sizing is different. EU sizing is different.


All shapes and sizes are unique and so are YOU!


In conclusion, fashion design, and manufacturing have unique systems when it comes to sizing. Both of the jeans I tried on were high-rise but one was baggier and the other was regular straight leg. I could see why they both fit due to the differences in design.


Next time you walk into that fitting room, have fun with it! You're the main character!
