But finding the right size Un't always esy. notes Mary Speckhart. Umatilla County Ex lens Ion Home Econo mist. There Is a wide variation In sizes of ready-to-wear dresses because garment manufacturers have not yet agreed on a stand ard set of measurements. Miss Speckhart says. Manufacturers use various classifications to designate fig ure types for which dresses are made, she explains. Most stores carry dresses in each classifica tion, but some stores do not carry the complete range In each. Classifications and possible size ranges in each are listed by the extension agent. Junior (sizes 5 to 131, for women 5'2" to 5'6" tall regard less of age. Junior Petite for the Junior size girl or woman who Is un der 52" tall. Petite (sizes 8 to 18), for short, slim women under 5'5" tall. Misses (size 8 to 18), for wom en 5'5" to 5'9" tall with slim to medium full figure and nor mal waistline. Tall (sizes 8 to 20), for wom en 5'9" or taller. Half sizes (sizes 12'i to 26'), for heavier short-waisted wom en. Women's (sizes 18 to 44) and out -sizes (46 to 52) for women 5'5" to 5'8" with large propor tions. These dresses have more ease through the shoulders, back, and waist than the large misses sizes. These classifications are bas ed on size only, states Miss Speckhart. Age Is not figured in the classes. The extension agent recom mends trying on various sizes In several classifications before making a final choice. This may eliminate the need for even mi nor alterations. For a good, comfortable fit, she advises, try the dress on over the foundation garments you expect to wear with it.
