Plus size isn't very "plus"

Admittedly, I run into this a lot with all kinds of stockings and pantyhose. I was hoping for an inexpensive pair for one occasion, but they didn't fit my thighs at all. I know I have large thighs, that's why I ordered plus size, but it needs more stretch at the top to actually work. Can't speak to the quality of the actual stockings as I was unable to actually wear them.
