Another girl is 5'10, weighs 208, what size will she be?

and the other situation:

A girl is 5'5", weighs 188, and wears a size 14/16

Another girl is 5'11, weighs 188, what size does she wear?

    that's still not enough info because they could have different amounts of fat to muscle ratio. is the 208 pounds mainly fat or muscle?

    answer mine please? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=201010...

    all depends on the body type, how the weight is being stored (fat/muscle). At one point I weighted 170 and was 5ft. Was a size 12/14. Seems I should have been weight a larger size but most of my weight was in my boobs/butt/thigh. so theres no blanket answer to that question. But typically, the taller you get at the same weight, it evens out. So taller person could be of a smaller size, but again, depending on where the weight is being carried.
