Simone Biles has spoken out about struggling to find clothes that fit.
The Olympian, 27, explained she often finds it difficult to find clothing that fits her perfectly, after she opened up about her size on social media.

“Before y’all complain that nothing fits y’all, I want y’all to see my struggle," she explained to her followers.
The US gymnast was able to cement her title as the most decorated gymnast in history at this year's Olympic Games, walking away with a staggering three golds, as well as a silver.
But even Olympic gold medallists have the same troubles as us regular folk, after Biles opened up about her height and how she finds it difficult to find jeans that fit her.
Biles explained she is only 4ft 8, and after revealing the tag on her Abercrombie & Fitch jeans, it seems the athlete wears a size 23/000 - which in the UK would correspond to a pair with 23-inch waist and presumably petite in length.

“So hard to find bottoms that fit me,” she said.
“But when I find them... my heart."
Biles has previously opened up about her petite figure after marrying football player Jonathan Owens in April 2023, where she wore a custom made Galia Lahav gown.
"I was nervous about having a ball gown because I'm so petite — but it works perfect," she told Vogue.

"The leg slit was very crucial. It was to add, in my head, more length to my body.
"I think this is exactly how brides are supposed to feel — luxurious, beautiful, kind of on top of the world."
Biles' fans have been loving the gymnast's style, with many commenting on an accessory she was wearing during the games, which fans have credited as classic Noughties core.

We are, of course, talking about the tooth gem that Biles was spotted donning while showing off her pearly whites.
In a snap shared earlier in the games, the gymnast could be seen biting down on one of her illustrious gold medals, showing off a gorgeous set of light-catching crystal gems, one on each side of her canine teeth.
"I've been waiting on someone to say sum’n every since the team won their gold medal, but no one’s gonna say sum’n bout the GOAT’s teefeses???" one wrote on social media this week.
Another gushed: "OMG THE TOOTH GEMS ARE EVERYTHING. I wanna get brunch with her so bad."
