A STYLE assessor has determined that size does not matter, even at the same brand.
She tested four pairs of jeans from one company that were supposed to be identical measurements, but they didn't all fit.
Grace Tutty (@gracetutty) claimed jean sizing was "fake" with her denim try-on haul.
The body-positivity enthusiast bought a handful of vintage Levi's styles to test.
"Four pairs of the same size, from the same brand," her caption read.
She tried every option in a 30, wide-fit.
Her first pair of jeans were a medium wash, mid-rise, and a bit baggy in the legs.
The waistline stopped below her belly button, but the denim fit her legs in length.
She didn't have as much luck in size with the second pair.
Grace slipped on a low-waisted look that couldn't even button.

And the following jeans had the opposite problem.
The high-waisted, high-rise denim was way too big around her midsection and cuffed just around her ankles.
Grace's final pair she tried were the same length, but again the pick couldn't even button.
The mid-rise pair had four buttons, and none could be closed.
"Proof that jean sizes are fake," Grace said.
Frustrated viewers commented on their experiences with sizing issues.
"I hate that we’ve all just accepted this. It should be unacceptable for brands to have zero consistency in their sizing," one upset person wrote.
An honest woman remarked: "It really changes, sometimes I wear 36, and sometimes I wear 32."
One YouTube user pointed out: "Well, they are each a different cut as well. High wasted, low rise, etc ..different cuts for differently regardless of size. Although I see your point!"
