What happened to Plus 18, 20??

‎03-03-2019 06:25 PM

I don't understand, I've been trying to buy plus size items and all I see is up to size regular 16 and then it jumps to petite plus? I know that I can't be the only one this happens to? Am I missing something or are they ordering more petites than plus size?

I'm looking at a LOGO dress on tv now and they have XL, which is the 18-20.

You're missing something! P is not petite; it's plus

@twinkie1- A 1x is equvialent to a Plus 18-20.  Which brand were you looking at?

I think the “p” stands for plus not petite.

@twinkie1  I think the P in that case refers to plus size. 18P would be the start of plus sizes.
