In Australia, 0XL (Zero Extra Large) is typically an entry-level plus size, often corresponding to a standard AU size 16 or starting around a US size 12, but it varies by brand; it's designed for curvier figures with more room in the bust, waist, and hips than a regular XL. It's best to check specific brand size charts as 0XL can sit between AU 14-16 or 16-18 depending on the label.
Now, if you're curious about the specifics: typically speaking, 0XL corresponds roughly to a US size 14-16 or an EU size 44-46. This means that if you usually find yourself in this range when shopping at other retailers, you'll likely find pieces labeled as 0XL on Shein will fit similarly.

In Australia, a size 12 is generally considered a "straight" or "missy" size, falling within average ranges, but due to vanity sizing and inconsistent measurements across brands, it can represent different body sizes; health-wise, a larger waist (over 88cm for women) is a risk factor, and the actual average Australian woman is now closer to a size 16-18, meaning a size 12 is smaller than average, though "fat" is a subjective term related to body image and health metrics like BMI, not just a single number.
