In contemporary usage, it can refer to anything that is excessively dramatic, extravagant, or exaggerated, whether in a positive or negative context. It is commonly used in both spoken and written English to describe something that is excessive, extravagant, or exaggerated to the point of being extreme or unreasonable.

What is "extra large"?

Extra Large (XL) is a size classification in clothing that typically refers to a garment that is designed to fit individuals with larger body frames. XL clothing is often used as a size category for both men and women and is typically considered to be the largest standard size in a clothing line. The exact measurements for an XL garment may vary between brands, but generally, it is designed to fit individuals with a chest size of around 42-44 inches for men and a dress size of around 16-18 for women. The purpose of the XL size is to provide comfortable and well-fitted clothing for people who may have difficulty finding clothing in smaller sizes.
