plus-sized
Larger than standard
Plus-sized describes clothing or body types larger than standard retail sizes, typically size 14 and above for women.
The term emerged as a neutral or positive alternative to "overweight" or "large": plus-sized models, the plus-sized section.
Some find it euphemistic; others prefer it to blunter terms.
Also spelled plus-size.
