Differences Between XXL and 2XL

XXL (Extra Extra Large):
– Typically follows the same cut as regular sizes, just scaled up.
– The entire garment increases in size, including length, sleeve size, and other dimensions.
– Often results in a fit that may not be ideal for plus-size bodies due to disproportionate scaling.

2XL (Double Extra Large):
– Specifically designed with plus-size bodies in mind.
– Patterns are altered to ensure a better fit rather than simply making the garment larger.
– Aimed at providing a more comfortable and proportionate fit for plus-size individuals.

The video quickly went viral and sparked debate on social media.
