Plus Size intimates
Plus size intimates just for women can be purchased in sizes 14 and over. The size ranges in plus size intimates usually include the addition of a "W" (e.g. 22W), in this case the letter W means "Women". Plus size intimates have often been known as "Women's Sizes". Plus size intimates are frequently found in their own part of the store or possibly in a dedicated boutique store that caters exclusively for women who require plus size intimates. Plus size intimates are typically available in the size numbers 14,16,18, etc. or by the annotation 'X', which means extra large. Plus size brands employ this nomination with a number range 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, and 6X. Frequently plus size intimates that are sized above size 24 or 3X are most often called "Super Size".
In the recent past, more than a few females who wore plus size intimates had a hard time finding fashionable clothing in plus sizes. Fortunately, with the advent of the World Wide Web and online shopping, the choices and options now available to plus-size ladies and plus-size teenagers has increased dramatically. Many online stores either carry some or focus entirely on plus size women's clothing.
