Great info but I've never in my life met a sewing pattern(including simplicity) that once I took my measurements and found the size according to the pattern itself that I didn't have to go two or 3 sizes down from that. I wish they would just make the patterns with less ease at this point. I often look at the finished garment measurements and pick based of those. But this is good info on how I can further adjust the patten.
