A clothing size should not determine whether or not you are slim.. You should check your BMI and make sure you fit w/in the weight ranges listed for your height. Then take into consideration your build, whether you have a lot of muscle mass or a larger bone structure. Most of all, it depends on how you feel about yourself. For example, I am 5'2" and I can weigh anywhere between 105-130 and be healthy but I have a larger bone structure and if I fall below 120 you can see my bones, but for me thats a size 10, however, my friend who is approximatly the same height is 107lbs and wears a size 4, and looks healthy, because she has a smaller frame.

Hi there is no slim sizes as it depends on wheather you look slim in it or not, i know this girl that is skinny, but still has to buy a size 12 top and 10 skirt and judging form how skinny she looks i thought she was like a size 6, please dont worry about your size as many people who look slim to you are wearing a big size ,but look really skinny, i found this out a long time a go.Just be happy with what you look good in, but it all depend on you structure.

I think size 8- 10 is slim, anthing less is too skinny, and abnormal! Size 12 is quite slim, but anything over is getting too big.

the average weight for 159cm is about 53-58 depending on your frame and when i mean average i mean by healthy weight. 8-10 are slim

I would say that UK sizes 8, 10 and 12 are slim but not 'skinny'. Your weight sounds fine to me, I would think you are already a size10/12, which is perfect. HTH.

I'd say anything from 7-9. Double digit sizes probably mean you're a bit bigger. I'm a 5/7 but I don't consider myself slim. I guess it depends on your body's structure.

I'd say a size 10, 8s and 6s are way to skinny! 10 is a nice size
