I saw a blouse that I liked in M&S but (as usual) they only had it in sizes 8 and 20. I ordered one in size 14, collected it yesterday, tried it on when I got home---and it's vast. I got out my trusty tape measure, measured the width underarm---51 inches. When I used to make my own clothes, I always reckoned on roughly bust size plus about 4 inches for underarm measurement. Now I've got to trail back into town for a refund---or maybe try on that size 8 !!
