The guideline shows that curvy Marilyn Monroe, left, would actually wear a size 8 (US size 4) today, whilst size 14 (US size 10) Kim Kardashian, right, would have been a size 18 (US size 14) back in the day A team of industry experts and governmental workers determine dress size criteria every five years or so, and BSI say their measurements should only be used as a guide. Speaking to the Sunday Times, a spokesperson said: 'Most retailers size their clothes according to their customer base, so there can be no true "standard" size no matter what we determine.' Speaking to the paper's Bénédicte Earl, analyst Clare Rayner, who founded Retail Acumen, said: 'The concept means the lady purchasing the garment may feel happy to imagine she is a smaller size and thus will prefer to shop there. Clare claims this so-called 'vanity sizing' has been happening for decades. She added: 'The fact is people are getting larger, so clothes will have to grow with us and, if we are going to worry so much about what the label says, I would expect "size inflation" to continue.'

Read More »The charts, which were created by The Washington Post using statistics released by the American Society of Testing and Materials, reveal how female dress sizes based on the exact same bust and waist measurements have changed over the last 50 years. Indeed, to highlight the discrepancy between then and now, the chart shows how today's UK size 12 (US size 8) is the 1958 equivalent of a size 16 (US size 12). A clothing size chart that has been unearthed shows how women's clothing sizes have dramatically changed in last 50 years. According to the statistics, Marilyn Monroe, whose measurements make her a UK size 16 (US 12) in 1958, could be anything between a size 2 (US size 00) and 12 (US size 8) today The mind-boggling chart also unearths how based on Marilyn Monroe's waist and bust measurements, she would be a size 16 (US size 12) in 1958, but doesn't even have a modern-day equivalent and could range anywhere between a size 2-12 (US size 00 - 8) today. The graphs, which have been reproduced with UK sizes by MailOnline, show the official sizing standards once maintained by the National Bureau of Standards. The company say its aim was to 'provide the consumer with a means of identifying her body type and size from the wide range of body types covered, and enable her to be fitted properly by the same size regardless of price, type of apparel, or manufacturer of the garment.' Whilst the average dress size has increased as the nation as a whole has gotten heavier, writing for Slate, Julia Felsenthal maintains that there are additional factors to be taken into consideration when it comes to analysing the charts. The charts, which were created by The Washington Post using statistics released by the American Society of Testing and Materials and created by data visualiser, Max Galka, reveal how female dress sizes based on the exact same bust and waist measurements have changed over the last 50 years (MailOnline has reproduced the charts to show UK sizes) She wrote: 'The study accounted only for white women; women of color who came in were measured, but their measurements were discarded. And since the study offered a small stipend to anyone who volunteered to be measured, there's a decent chance that the results skewed toward the poor and malnourished.
