Yes, a size 32 is generally considered a plus size. While the exact size range for plus-size clothing varies between brands and styles, many retailers define plus sizes as starting at a size 14 or 16 and extending upwards. Several sources confirm that size 32 falls within the plus-size range.
Evidence from Various Sources:
- Retailer Sizing: One reference explicitly states that "0X-5X plus sizes, which would be a size 12-32" are considered plus sizes. [Reference 1]
- Plus-Size Clothing Stores: Numerous online stores explicitly offer clothing in size 32 as part of their plus-size collections. Examples include Sydney's Closet (sizes 14-40), [Reference 2] and retailers offering size 32 underwear [Reference 9] and tunics [Reference 10]. Ashley Stewart's size chart also includes a size 32 within their plus size offerings [Reference 7].
- Specific Product Listings: A product listing for a plus-size weighted hula hoop is explicitly labeled as "32 Knots Plus Size" [Reference 1]. This demonstrates the use of "32" to identify a plus-size item.
It's important to note that sizing can vary significantly between brands and styles. While a size 32 is generally considered plus-size, it's always best to consult individual brand's size charts for accurate measurements.
