These are clothes that sold in the stores and were rejected by the customers for whatever reason, and find themselves in the mail order end as a quick way to dispose of them and still make near retail profit from them.

Different clothing companies use different patterns or dummies when cutting and sewing clothing to give the illusion of slimness. I've rarely seen my wife, my three daughters, or my sisters walk into a store and find something that fits on first try.
