I think some people just don't want to accept that they're a larger size and want to be "smaller" even when they're not. Even then, sizes are getting bigger and bigger. I used to take the second smallest size in most clothing stores (before I lost all my baby fat) and then the smallest. Now, even the smallest size is getting a little loose...and I haven't lost any weight.
I also find that a lot of brands from Europe don't make size 00 or 0, even when they are listed in "American" sizes. The smallest I can find at Zara is a 2 (and that's rare), ditto with Mexx. I think the smallest size at H&M is 4.

I've seen a few stores with size 0, so I know they are out there. It doesn't mean I understand it. If you're a size 0 does that mean you are so small that you don't exist??
I wish that sizes were universal. Stores may carry a size 2, but one company's size 2 may be equivalent to another company's size 4. It would be great if clothing had some standards.
Women need to get over their need for vanity sizing. Besides, if we all wore clothes that actually fit us properly, sizing wouldn't matter because we would all look good, no matter what the tag said.
