In general, I'm not a fan of skinny sleeves. When the ultra slim models wear items that have very tight sleeves, I always size up a size or two. 'I mean'..........how would those items fit a regular arm, if they barely fit a very slim model's very, very slim arms?

Women's is an old fashioned term for Plus Size. A few stores still use but not many. There's junior, misses or plus. There is some overlap, a size 14 in misses would be cut a littler smaller than a 14W in the plus. The measurements would be an inch or two larger in the plus.

@Blondelle, In recent years there has been some blurring of the lines between women’s and misses sized clothing. Although some of the specific sizes are near each other, they are different in a number of ways.
Misses Sizes
Misses sizes have traditionally been even sizes going from size 0 through size 18. Size 20 has recently been added as a misses size. Sizes 14 through 20 overlap women’s sizes in number labels.
Women’s sizes
Women’s sizes are labeled as even sizes followed by a “W,” starting with 14W and going up through size 26W or higher. Sometimes women’s sizes are labeled X, 2X, 3X, and 4X. Women’s clothing is also called plus-sized clothing.
