Plus-size: What is It?

plus- size.bmpWell…

Typically, plus sizes are size 14 and up.

But there is more- and it can get confusing.

Regular sizes are called misses sizes. Some of those do indeed come in 14 and 16; those aren’t true plus sizes.

Plus sizes are also called women’s sizes, which is why you find stores with names such as Talbots Woman or Dress Barn Woman. Often- though not always- the tags of plus-size clothes have a W, as in 14W or 16W. Sometimes plus-size clothes are labeled size X, 1X, 2X, 3X and beyond.

Plus-size clothes are cut larger than their misses counterparts. According to Talbots, which sells plus sizes up to 24W and 3X as well as misses sizes up to 20 and XL, plus sizes have more room in the waist and hips. They’re constructed to allow more room for arms, legs, tummies and a larger- and lower- bustline. Sometimes plus sizes have elastic in the waistband.
