put pants/shorts waistband around neck = weirdo?

Honeystarzz SG

when u guys shop for shorts or pants or jeans, do u put the waistband around ur neck?

do u loop the waistband around ur neck to determine whether it can fit or not, before bring it to the fitting room to try, or buying it w/o trying on? coz circumference of neck = half of waist measurement.

when i do that, sometimes ppl or SA give me the weird look. maybe they though i m trying to strangle myself with the garment.

i always do that coz i m very slim, n so most of the time i will have to take the smallest size available.

sometimes i get the women's shorts (if it does not look too skimpy) coz the smallest size of the men's shorts is still too big (especially with european cutting).

for a moment i thought u are going to start a new fashion statement of hanging trousers' waistband round your neck.. lol

depending on your body size n shape, if u are a beanstalk then u could do that to get the measurement, but for a person who is curvy, its not going to get a accurate fitting.

its ok for guys to wear women's pants.. especially those super skinny leg, looks good on guys as well.

but i would reccomend u to try it before buying because with the current trend of pants, sometimes its abit hard to figure out how it would look as a whole, not only the waist measurement matters.
