I can no longer fit the stuff I wore at 18, because I am no longer unhealthily underweight.

Ironically, I bought a dress that was intended for a fannish bridesmaid at 18. I wore it to friend's wedding, though my grandmother had to hem it 6" for me. It sat in my closet for years. After I Lots a Lot of Weight due to being gluten intolerant, I tried it on again. It was still too small. So I called my mother, who is a tiny Irish woman, and asked to see if she could fit the dress.

She fit it wonderfully, though --you guessed it-- I had to hem it another 6". Mom insisted on wearing That Dress to my wedding, since both Grandma and I worked on it and we lost my grandmother a few years ago.

Costuming: the gift that keeps on giving. :)
