ESL Podcast 1159 – Describing the Fit of Clothing

Vera: How do these pants look on me? 

Wang: Uh, aren’t they a little too tight? They look like they’re cutting off circulation in your legs. 

Vera: They’re a little snug, but they show off my curves, don’t they? 

Wang: I suggest going up a size. Something a little less form fitting would be a lot more comfortable. 

Vera: I’m not going for comfort. I’m going for style. 

Wang: Here, try these pants. They’re looser and offer more room. 

Vera: These don’t show my shape at all. They’re not in the least flattering. 

Wang: But you can move in them without busting a seam. 

Vera: You’re missing the point. I want to look good in these pants no matter what. 

Wang: Spoken like a true slave to fashion!
