Womens Clothing> US Juniors
In the US nearly every teen girl and young adult woman wear "Junior" size clothing, yet there is NO category in eBid for Junior clothing. They have a Women's categoy with Plus Size and Petites as subcategories. It is very important that eBid have a subcategory for US Junior size clothing for US sellers. Please read the rest of my post for my explanation.
Misses sizes fall under Women's Clothing category just fine.
Misses sizes are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 etc. Most women I know wear Misses sized clothing. If you can't wear Misses sizes, you have subcategories of Plus Size and Petites.
US Junior sizes have odd numbers with the exception of 0. They are 0, 1, 3, 5, 7 etc. Sometime they could be considered Junior/Miss with sized of 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8 etc., but are still considered "Junoirs" because of the odd number in the size.
Junior sizes are more trendy, jeans are usually low rise, flaired legs, "skinny" jeans, and other trends. Tops are smaller and tighter. They are tailored for the young and fashionable. Every department store in the US sells Junoir sizes for teens and young adults, and is probably their most profitable department. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of stores in the US that sell ONLY Junior sizes. It is big business here.
When I joined eBid, seller+, I went to list my daughter's gently used Junior clothes and got stopped in my tracks. NO Junior category! What!??
Even "chubby" teens can wear sizes 13, 15, & 17. Bigger than that, they probably wear "Women's" size which is 18W, 20W, 22W, etc., which fall under the Plus Size subcategory here.
Members from the UK have said that they don't sell Junior clothing in the UK. I believe them, but I find it hard to believe that teens and young adults in the UK wear the same clothes as their mothers and grandmothers.
Please post your support for this much needed category for US sellers. All Junior clothing listed now is buried in thousands of Misses sizes, and need their own subcategory.
Thank you.
