579

If anyone has seen the movie 'Mean Girls' then you have at least heard of the 579 store. What I didn't know what that the store really does exist. My mom comfirmed that the other day saying that she was still shopping in it after I was born. (My mom had me during her sophmore year)

Butr as far as I know there isn't one in my area. Does anyone have a 579 in their area?

Doubt there'd be one in England. Just do a Google search and it will give you all the information you'll need.

Thanks Hikitty.

It just sucks that I can't fit the clothing

If I remember rightly from the film the shop was notorious for carrying only smaller sizes wasn't it?

That's true. It only carries sizes 5,7, and 9 lol. I used to be able to fit a nine in high school. Unfortunately due to my big butt you'll only see me in a 12 at the smallest.

I remember this store in Mean Girls XD what sizes are these? American or something else? The UK has different sizes to everywhere else.

These are American sizes.

Their nine is our eleven, I know that.

We don't have a size 11, but I assume it's in the mid point of our size 10 and 12. UK women's sizes start at size 4 and go up in twos. Our size 4 is equal to the American size zero, although people who are size 6 (my size) can actually fit in to size zero clothing, weird right?

I've been to 5•7•9 once or twice, but I think it was in an outlet mall. From what I remember, they have exactly what you can expect from a junior's fashion shop—cute but ultimately cheap clothing. It's definitely an option, but I like the stuff in Forever 21 better, myself.

lol, 579 doesn't just carry those sizes.

It does carry smaller sizes though. Its more of a Junior's Petite type store. When I was in High school, it was one of the few places I could find jeans in my size that weren't too long for my legs (At the time, I was 4'11" and 85lbs. I wore shirt size XS and pant size 00 and 0.) Long gone are those days. Now I'm about 105lbs (and much healthier) and a size 1/2/3 depending on brand.

579 always carried pants that fit me perfect. But they carried a variety of common brands too. Like Angel and Hydraulic jeans... But carried almost exclusively small sizes ( most of their pants/skirt inventory were sizes 000 to like 3 or 5 I think.) I think a pretty good equivelent to 579 out here would be CitiWear, Styles for less and Love Culture. Unfortunately, all their darn pants have loooong legs. *grumbles* lol
