I dunno. They also found different body types to be the ideal. 40's dresses fit me perfectly and there's no way I can find anything made after then that fits perfectly. Sticks with boobs was not the ideal. (I have also had lots of friends who have had really easy times finding vintage stuff that fits perfectly even though they have "odd" body types.)
