 WHERE TO SHOP FOR PLUS SIZE CLOTHING SIZE 28 AND UP

Most plus size retailers would have us believing that anyone over a size 28 is plain outta luck. Yet when I walk down the street I don't see women size 28+ flaunting their beautiful unclothed bodies…. so that must mean GASP they also need clothes to wear!!!! Shocking, I know. Fat people need clothing. Fat WOMEN need clothing. They need clothing that doesn't come from a mens big and tall store (though, let's be honest all of us look stellar in an over-sized button up).

So this one is for my fat babes size 28+. The plus size clothing industry leaves you behind way too often. You deserve to feel amazing in everything you put on your body.

Universal Standard

Universal Standard is creating incredible quality clothing, tons of options, and up to size 40! They've recently committed to creating all new styles in their full size range and we are stoked! While many plus size women's clothing companies are making their extended sizes less of a priority, Universal Standard is keeping it at the forefront of their mission. Their prices start around $50.

Snag

Snag used to be just an incredible, inclusive tights brand, but they have recently expanded and are making some super cool clothing in up to size 34! They have lots of super fun and versatile options from sweaters, tops, and bodysuits to dresses, skirts, and even jeans!

Catherines

Catherine's is a staple for many people over size 28. They carry up to a size 36 (or 5x), and have so many options! Catherine's is not only a a great place for daily wear, but they also carry active wear, bras, and awesome outerwear as well. They're covering all your bases!!! Prices start around $25.

Tuesday Of California

I am completely in love with this brand. I've got several pieces from them (my fave you can see here). All of their in house items are created up to size 6x/30, and are amazing quality. Supporting small businesses and getting cute plus size clothes at the same time? Win! Prices start around $60.

Ashley Stewart

Ashley Stewart has been an amazing force in the plus size community for a long time, and they have some great clothes, and now they have great clothes that go up to size 34/36! While the selection is limited, they are working on getting all of their designs into the full extended size range very soon! Their prices start around $25.

Ulla Popken

With sizes up to 38, Ulla Popken is a great place to shop for chic and hip plus size clothing. Because not all plus size babes are super tall, they are a great option for petite plus sizes with their "short" option in jeans and pants! Though most of the clothes are priced around $50, there is a really great "outlet" section of the website where you can find plenty of cute things for a steal! I'm also super excited about their new menswear line that goes up to 7x!

SuperFit Hero

Superfit hero is the wildly inclusive plus size activewear brand you've been dreaming of. With sizes up to 7x (or 40-42) they have got you covered for all your working out or lounging around needs. They're comfy, and the matching sets make me swoon. Prices start around $50.

Curve Girl

Curve Girl is a new one to our list! They carry up to size 8x and the jeans shown below even go to a size 46! Curve Girl believes women shouldn't be relegated to untrendy clothes just because of their size, and I couldn't agree more. I'm so happy to have this new addition to our list and I hope you check them out! Prices are super reasonable too! Starting at $25!

On The Plus Side

With sizes from 22-48 (1X-8X), making it big truly caters to the larger plus size woman. They have petite and long styles in their pants, and I've heard from several people that their quality is excellent. This brand is more expensive than some others, but would be a great place for staple pieces like a great pair of jeans. Prices start around $70.

Kiyonna

I absolutely love this brand's all around sophisticated look. They have beautiful work wear that would be amazing to twirl around an office in. While their prices are higher than some on the list, the pieces I own from them are solid and have lasted me a long time. And look how beautiful some of these prints are! Sizes up to 32 (5x), prices start around $45.

One thing I know for sure is that WE NEED MORE PLUS SIZE STORES CARRYING OVER SIZE 28!!! Every time I update this post I feel excited by the newcomers and always a little sad to see a couple disappear as well. As a plus size community, I hope that we can all raise our voices enough to insist that brands start catering to a larger audience.

Happy shopping my plus size angels!

  1. This is great to find real plus size clothing, but why is it you have to pay so much more money compared to smaller people. These prices are not affordable to most people.

    1. I agree. Why I like Rainbow but they only go up to barely my size (22/24) and Roaman's/Woman Within. I can't afford a lot of these.

    2. @Vicki Seitz q,

      Plus size clothing is more expensive because it’s:
      1. produced to supply a smaller market, and
      2. takes a lot more fabric to make!

      More materials/product/labour = more $$$ when you’re buying food, building supplies, plants, ANYTHING. So once you’re dealing with clothes outside of normal size range and market majority, why should it be any different?

  2. Great! I am plus size. I really not find a cloth for my size. I will surely go thought this. thanks for sharing.

  3. Hi there please add Love Your Peaches Clothing! Fab finds up to 10x been shopping with them for almost ten years. Customized as well! Diana.

  4. I am plus size. I really not find a cloth for my size.
    Thank you so much for making this list, and for keeping it updated. I was in tears of frustration before I found it,

  5. I am a big girl and have always been. I have a small chest A/B cup and I can NEVER find a bra that fits correctly. I don't even know the band size anymore. Or how to accurately measure for that. Then I have a large, round stomach, a fat flap between belly button and top of fupa. It goes all the way around like an inner tube, so my hips are wide. My legs are mostly muscle, with 20 inch calves. I wish more companies made shirts and dresses with a colorful/busy/patterned chest/bust area and dark on the bottom to help us A cup babes. Does anywhere sell bras for me?
    It is 3am and I still have no luck.

    1. @Samantha Shipley, I don't know if you've gotten any answers yet but I also am small chested. I wear a 52A and about the only place I can get a bra that size is leadinglady.com. I hope you have already found somewhere but if not that site is awesome

  6. I know it wouldn't be the easiest to find what you want, but I want to suggest Etsy. There are designers on there who will do custom sizing and who are likely trying to start a brand or plus size business. I predict buying there will help us all have more options in the future!

  7. Wonderful article! Thank you for posting I went to a few sites I have never been to before and I actually ordered off Curve Girl to see if sizing is true to size. I should know by next weekend! <3 Fingers crossed! #BBW #BEXTRABW #over45androckingit

  8. Thank you so very much for this updated list. I look forward to checking out all the sites. I wanted to let everyone know that Catherine's has closed. It was heartbreaking to me because that is where all my adult clothes have come from for years. Catherine's is truly missed in my family. My mom shopped there as did my sister. Happy shopping ladies !!

    1. @kc, They have not had one new item since they 'moved' to online only (one stop plus). They are simply selling off old inventory, advertised as new. Sorry to tell you that. I too, was devastated, but finding this last thing out was the true end of my heart! No one will admit that that is what is happening, but trust me, I've been CLOSELY following this for a year. They are truly gone.

    1. I'd love more info on this! What do you mean? I've ordered from them before and it seemed.. normal?

  9. I am so impressed with the models in your clothing. When a woman is obese the last thing she wants to see when looking for clothes is a tiny lady wearing an outfit that is supposed to be designed for a larger size woman. Thank you for making your displays of clothing acceptable to us fluffy gals.

  10. I know this is an old post, but I only just found it and wanted to say THANK YOU! I have been searching high and low for a pair of jeans (in a size 34) and couldn't find anything until now. I am just so grateful.

  11. I'm looking for black pantyhose to fit my 350 lbs body! I'm so angry that I have spent money on hose (and other clothing) only to bring it home and it does not fit.

  12. I'm a size 30 and I have found really cute clothes at Hot Topic. Their sizes go up to a size 30 and I found that they are a little big on me. Another shop that has trendy 28+ is Torrid. They only go up to a size 30 but I have also found that some of their size 30 is a little oversized. They are pricey but I always shop the clearance racks and get things way cheaper (usually out of season) but save a lot of money. Thanks for this blog I will try some of these other places as it's good to know where to shop since I am just one size over the size that most conventional stores stop selling at so that is very frustrating.
