Is it size 8 and up? Size 10 and up? I'm 6 feet, female, and about 165 lbs. I'm trying to lose 10 lbs. I just don't think I could ever NOT be considered plus size, but my body doesn't look plus size at all! I'm like a size 12 now.
Answer
Plus sized is equivalent to Full Figured Size 14, 16, 18, 20, 22. Most women in that category are between 175 lbs and 275 lbs. Those women shop at "Women's apparel" stores like Lane Bryant, Roaman's, Ashley Stewart, the AVENUE, Sizes Unlimited, and other stores like that. They are also defined as wearing clothes that are 1x, 2x and 3x. It is certainly not anywhere between a single digit or up to a size 12. Petites, Juniors and Misses are not the category for Plus size.

Answer
im not plus size but i have a couple friends who are and they always come to me for fashion advice so i hope i can help.
Lane Bryant has some really cute stuff as of late. like, theres a few things there im jelous im not big enough to fit in, so be sure to give them a shot.
Torrid is like, my favorite plus size store ever because they carry all sorts of funky modern stuff, cool rocker stuff, and some really chic stuff if you need to dress up for things.
not everything in the plus size sections at department stores is terrible either, so if your in Kohls or something and the first thing you see is some horrid plaid dress that looks like it was maid from a picnic blanket, dont give up hope. my mother is plus sized and she does most of her shopping at kohls and she is way way fashion forward for her age.
idk where they all have locations but i know there is a plus size type store called CJ banks that has some nice stuff too. they are really good if you need work type clothes.
hope i helped, and i hope you find some really cute clothes! they are out there. i think its kind of insulting how many unflattering clothes there are for plus size people out there. dont get discouraged if you dont find stuff right away, NO ONE ever finds exactly what they are looking for on the first shot
