Where can i find men's clothes in women's sizes? cause the androgynous look seems really fashionable. i've tried going to the men's department, but their smallest sizes are still too big. (I'm 5'1'', and kinda skinny..) i've also tried going to the kids department, but the their sizes are still kinda weird. (i don't like wearing loose clothes..i like them fit) i actually heard that Dior homme in LA has men's clothes in women's sizes..but that's just too far and too expensive.


simple things like long sleeves, vests, sweaters, suits, jackets, tank tops, and even boy shorts/underwear (a lot of women in the states actually like wearing boy underwear coz it's comfy)



any shops you can recommend?(not too expensive) i'm going for the boyish type of clothing..a la Sam Ronson/Ellen Degeneres. thanks! :)

At 5'4" (I am guy) even I have difficulty finding clothes that fit. I'm usually S or XS.

Buying kids size and getting it tailored to fit seems to be the only option for you.

It's not and androginous look.

You are extremely small in american standards so none of the standard fits you except in children's and women's clothing.

Most of the cuts for women are really for women, you may pass the kid's sizes.

You can follow the Equestian Trend. It's quite fitting so it makes you look longer. Basta, you'll understand more if you visit this article (http://jankasphere.blogspot.com/2008/05/trend-alert-equestrian-outfit.html) (it's a good read with runway photos as references).

You could buy at Rag&Bone, or Carolina Herrera etc! There's lots of them..
