What is the word used for a fit model used in showrooms in the modeling / fashion industry?

Monday, January 5th, 2009
Florida w/ Questions asked:


There is a word/term used in the modeling / fashion industry that refers to a model of a specific size who can be used for certain jobs because they fit a certain size criteria. I am explaining this pooly. I cannot think of the word/term and it is driving me insane.

If a model is “this” they can work in the showroom and model for the designers and the buyers because they fit this size criteria. For male models, they have to be a 40 Reg, for instance.

Words/terms it is NOT:
fit model
average
standard
mannequin size

Here’s another weird thing about this: this term ALSO is used to define the clothing a stylist pulls from a showroom for a shoot.

Does anyone know what I am talking about? One person told me they think it starts with a “P” but I don’t know if it does, for sure.

Thank you!
