Let’s see how Lee Anne uses active listening:
Lee Anne: “Tell me more about what happened?”
Audrey: “I asked them to make sure there was ***a full size*** on the display and when I went back to check it wasn't done. They completely ignored me.”
Lee Anne: “So what you are saying is it frustrates you when people don’t listen to you?”
Does it mean "a full-size mannequin"?

: I think that suggestion was already made several days ago; and given the fact we have no confirmatory context, perhaps a confidence level of '5' is a little presumptuous?

Synonymous and interchangeable with plus-size model is "full-figured model," "extended-sizes model," and "outsize model". Previously, the term "large size ...

As Gallagy and Chris have mentioned I think the "full size" is intentionally vague and could refer to anything (shoes or clothing if this is for Nike), although that doesn't help poor Ana with the translation!
