What is "large"?

Large generally indicates a size that is larger than average, typically ranging from 40-42 inches in the chest and 34-36 inches in the waist for men, and 12-14 for women. Large sizes vary across brands and regions and may be accompanied by other descriptors such as "tall" or "plus-size." In fashion, the term "large" is often associated with loose-fitting or oversized garments, and can be used to create a relaxed or casual look. However, the term "large" can also carry negative connotations, perpetuating unrealistic beauty standards and body shaming.
