Country Road Men’s Small = Rugby Player Large

Same goes for Women’s sizes…A clever ploy to make plump girls feel better when they slip into a ’small’ or ‘medium’?

Oh hell yes. And New Zealand sizing charts need to be converted as such:

NZ Small = XL
NZ Large = XXL
NZ XL = XXXL

When stores like Farmers only stock NZ Large and bigger, you’ve got no hope of finding anything “fitted”.

“a proud resident of a World Class City.”

If it makes you feel any better, you can’t be living in any world class city if you live in NZ.

As for getting nekkid, could work in Australia but it’s too cold in our lovely country. We want you alive not dead from hypothermia.

NZ needs to get (or rediscover) a sense of style and taste. I could say we let ourselves down but the truth is most of us just don’t know how to dress.

I’m sure a good many of us Kiwi chucks would be only too happy to sew our own clothes, if it weren’t for the fact that the selection of fabric available is even more atrocious and overpriced than the clothes themselves.

We’d pretty much be resigned to wearing either camo polar fleece or shiny pink satin bridesmaids dresses everywhere we went, which is hardly befitting for a proud resident of a World Class City. (Come to think of it, if I made it, it’d hardly be fitting at all, but that’s a different story).

I think we should boycott all clothes and wander around starkers until something is done about the situation. After all, it’s not like it ever gets cold here.

NZ is indeed a country in love with highly flammable polyester… been to Takapuna recently? Enough said!

**What’s with all the garish plaid..?**

How can you not love a pattern which makes you look both shorter and wider at the same time?

What’s with all the garish plaid and neon I’m seeing then? Or maybe I’m living in a little fashion x dimension. Holy hell give me back the black!

**because everyone knows nz as the all black country…like we’re all mourners.**

At least we’re dressed and ready for the next time the rugby team loses to the french…
