It's true, clothing sizes are drifting. It's all about marketing. If brand X's size 12 jeans and brand Y's size 14 jeans fit you the same, which are you going to buy? The 12's, so you can say you wear a size 12.
The one thing that's not drifting is wedding dresses. When I went wedding dress shopping I was asked what size I wear for cocktail dresses. I said "10" and was sent to the 14s.
