English term or phrase: Large husky and large plus sizes
I'm translating sizes of clothing made for fat people in the US and I found euphemistic terms like "Large Husky" (for boys that can't fit in normal large sizes) or "Large Plus", an equivalent for women.
I know of no equivalent of that in Spanish for Spain, so I would like some suggestions.

Thanks.

large husky and large plus sizes
tallas grande extra y grande plus


Explanation:
Me parece útil conservar la palabra GRANDE para todos los talles a partir de grande y superiores. Si son los talles más grande que el Grande, pero tienen distinta denominación para hombre y mujer, optaría por GRANDE EXTRA (para hombre) Y GRANDE PLUS (para mujer).
