The current sizes of women's clothing, defined in 1972, do not conform to the current physical profile of the Spanish, according to the first anthropometric study prepared by the Ministry of Health that proposes a change in the patronage based on four values: height, chest, chest , Waist and hip.

The data obtained in this study, prepared with a sample of 10.415 women between 12 and 70 years divided into ten age groups, reveal that 40% of women have problems finding the clothing size.

"We are going to the disappearance of current sizes and another model that satisfies women," said Minister of Health, Bernat Soria, in the presentation of this study that shows the existence of three women's morphotypes based on the perimeter ofBust, waist and hip, depending on stature.

The system that Soria has announced will propose to the European Union should include these parameters, which would replace the current carving with a more precise one in which the size of the clothing would be defined with three digits (chest, waist and hip) for each height.

The results depending on these four values show photography of how women are in Spain by age groups.

For the first time, the study establishes that the Spanish woman's body responds to three different categories according to their anatomical form: diabolo (chest perimeter and symmetrical hip and narrower waist), bell (symmetrical chest and waist and greater hip perimeter) andcylinder (greater chest symmetry waist and hip).
