I think size 10 is considered plus size which is insane. Back in the 60's women aspired to be size 10-12 which was considered average. Even number sizes were "misses sizes" until you got to around size 20 and then you were 'women's sizes." Odd numbers were "juniors."
Somewhere along the line, someone made up "plus sizes" and started them at size 10 I think. Ridiculous. I wish women would stop accepting this nonsense and just buy whatever fits. To Hell with numbers!
OT - I am 5:10 5:11, do not like water, pool party so I show up in a very short sun dress and matching hat (Texas), 16-18, the conversation between a friend and her husband was pain full "told you she is a full size *** and cannot get into a swim suit". I am life guard qualified.
I went from 16 to 6 and back to 16. As long as SO has no problems - I finally have cleavage. Took me long enough!
Take a look at this picture and tell us if this model is plus-size in your opinion. She has worked as a plus-size line model and now has started her own line. But is this what you really think of when you hear the term plus-size?
Btw, this is in no way to diminish from her own natural beauty.
Yes, she's taller and has a larger frame than the average model
But she's still slimmer than the average American female. I have a feeling women would still complain if models looked like her or even Cindy Crawford since they are far from what the avg American woman weighs or looks like
That said, she's not plus sized in real world USA. But she's plus sized in the fashion industry

Size 10-12 in the 50's and 60's is not the same as today. Too many women try to pull the Marilyn was a size 12, but her waist was a 22/23 inch
All I see is a tall skinny woman with a larger then average chest. Her breasts and her frame make her "plus sized" but not what I would consider to be a traditional plus sized model.
She's an embodiment of that one anecdotal example that people will bring up whenever any "discussion" comes up about what is and isn't plus sized to make a point or blow people's minds.
he has no hips or shape at all. What is she...12,lol
Did you see her chest? That's no 12-year old's chest! It's hard to tell about her shape, because she's hiding herself behind those folded arms. We can't see what her waist is like. She looks like her top part is a bigger size than the bottom.
