I honestly don't know when the inflation of sizes started (and I never said that it was recent) as most of my clothing is SML type sizing but I know that I have seen 12-20s in with the non plus sizes (I think we can all agree that a size 20 is a plus size) so to me the fact that it can be found outside of the plus section doesn't mean much. Every plus sized store that I have been in (I do help friends shop after all) carries size 10 (UK 12), there is no motive for them to have a size that isn't a plus size, there really aren't women who want to go to plus sized shops to buy their clothes, so why the hell would they all carry something that isn't actually a plus size?
