Just a quick suggestion as the husband of a woman who does not like tracking her fitness by pounds. She is always more concerned with which size dress she can fit into. Maybe it would be good to have a conversion mechanism from inches to dress size.
- joshcrowder 11y agoThat would be really difficult to do as no two dresses are the same size. Same for male clothing to be honest!
- pjc50 11y agoYes, it's a disaster area. I'll just plug a small web app written by a friend of mine that addresses this problem: http://sizes.darkgreener.com/ http://sizes.darkgreener.com/ It uses least squares regression to work out, given your actual measurements, what "size" label from which shops is likely to fit.
- tomeglenn 11y agoThis is great. Would your friend be interested in discussing a collaboration? I'm looking to build similar functionality into HipStat.
- atrophying 11y agoAs a woman who also don't like to track her fitness by pounds, dress size is not a particularly useful metric, because it's so highly variable among manufacturers. I have pants that range from size 8 to size 16. If I tried to measure my fitness by what pant size I wore today, I'd go crazy in record time.
