[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I consider plus size anything over a 10. [/quote] Size 16-18 is usually where body shape and proportion start to differ significantly from straight sizes so that there needs to be a different cut. Size 12 and 14 are just a proportionally larger 10. 1X is a 14/16 that is cut in a plus size silhouette. That’s why 1X is different from XL. Lane Bryant carries 14s and 16, but they’re W sizes like 14W and fit different from a Banana or J Crew 14. Plus size is more about proportion and body shape than a number size. [/quote] True, but, some stores and some designers stop at size 10 — although since clothing sizes aren’t standardized, what “ size 10” actually means as a fit can vary widely. Also, I have occasionally seen size 0x — which is the W body shape proportions in a smaller size. [/quote]
