A plus-size model is an individual from size 12 and above who is engaged primarily in modeling plus-size clothing. Plus-size clothing worn by plus-size models are typically catering and marketed to either Big & Tall or Tall men and women. Plus-size models also engage in work that is not strictly related to selling clothing, e.g., stock photography and advertising photography for cosmetics, household and pharmaceutical products and sunglasses, footwear and watches. Therefore, plus-size models do not exclusively wear garments marketed as plus-size clothing. This is especially true when participating in fashion editorials for mainstream fashion magazines.
