Midsize refers to a range of clothing sizes that sit between typical straight sizes and plus sizes. Straight sizes are generally considered to be 0 to 8, and plus sizes are conventionally known as 16 and up. Therefore, the midsize range is generally considered to be from 10 to 14. However, there is no clear definition of what midsize means, and different people and outlets have different definitions. Some people consider midsize to be between sizes 12 and 16, while others consider it to be between sizes 8 and 18. Some creators use the term midsize to refer to being larger than the cultural ideal of thinness, but also not fat. Midsize fashion content runs the gamut, from realistic recreations of outfits first seen on Pinterest to tips on how to dress if you want to emphasize your best features and downplay the ones you feel less confident about.
