Vanity sizing
Vanity sizing, also known as size inflation is used to refer to the phenomenon of ready-to-wear clothing of the same nominal size becoming larger over time, with the implication that manufacturers do so to satisfy the buyer's wish to appear thin. This also means that some customers may have to wear smaller nominal sizes without much change in their body shape.
