However many manufacturers prefer to use the X factor calling their clothing extra large (X) or extra-extra large (XX) or even extra-extra-extra large (XXX) and sometimes even bigger. While you can generally assume that extra large women’s blouses are more or less the same as a size 14W, this is not always the case. Of course if you are able to try the garments on then you will immediately see whether a plus size tunic or any other plus size top fits you. From experience I can tell you that if you are buying via mail order or from a virtual Internet store, then you should check the catalog carefully to see how sizing applies to your own measurements.
