Why Plus Size Lingerie Matters

When it comes to lingerie, every body deserves to feel beautiful and empowered. Plus size lingerie offers a wide range of options tailored specifically for curvier individuals, providing comfort, support, and style. Here, we'll explore the importance of embracing your body and why finding the right plus size lingerie is crucial for your self-confidence.

Don't let your body hold you back

Shopping for plus size intimates doesn't have to be fraught with anxiety. Your body is always worthy of exceptional care and tenderness. If you're feeling trepidatious about stepping into something new, lean into watching other people with fat bodies try on lingerie.

Fat bodies are sexy. Full stop. You are going to look incredible in whatever you choose.

My Favorite PLUS SIZE LINGERIE

LoveHoney

I've been shopping at Love Honey for a couple years now, and they continue to come out with better products, while also increasing their size range. Love Honey's lingerie is sexy and you will be feelin' yourself. If you're like me, you only wear the sexy stuff when you're getting down to business (and I don't mean going to your office job).

They have a huge variety of incredibly well priced pieces that are perfect for any occasion where you don't need your lingerie to be functional... because you'll be taking it right off! Sizes up to 6x, prices start around $15. psst - you can use the code FLOW15 for 15% off your Lovehoney order!

Hips & Curves

Our tried and true fat girl store, Avenue, has partnered with Hips & Curves to bring us some seriously scrumptious fat babe ensembles. This lingerie makes me think of the words "elegant", "classy", and "boss bitch". If you're the kind of plus size hottie that wears lingerie under their clothes every day, this place is for you! Prices start around $40 and sizes go to 4x.

Savage X Fenty

I am absolutely in love with Rhianna's line of lingerie. I love the fashion-forward, edgier looks in their collection. When shopping the Savage X Fenty site, make sure you check out the "curvy" styles and the bra and panty sets that align with their plus size lingerie!  Sizes up to 4x, prices start at $10, and their variety in colors is unmatched.

Torrid

Torrid continues to hit it out of the park with fat girl staples. Their bralettes are comfy and their panties always fit nicely. What more do ya need to be the best plus size lingerie? Prices start around $20, sizes go up to 6x.

AdoreMe

I was a bit skeptical about this brand when I first saw it was a monthly subscription. Instead of paying for a set you sign up for a membership and then get a discount on a set. You can choose to skip any month you want and it hasn't presented any problems for me. And I've got to tell you, their loungewear is the softest comfiest thing on the planet! They carry bras in sizes up to 46G and panties and sleepwear in sizes up to 4x, with some of the absolute cutest little sets I've ever seen! Update: I cancelled my subscription to Adoreme this Summer. I was so bummed about it that by the Winter I had started it back up again. No more skepticism from me - this brand is amazing.

Origami Customs

I am OBSESSED with Origami Customs. They are the gender neutral dream company we've all been waiting for. With custom items for people of all sizes, and a dedication to creating perfectly fitting pieces you just can't find elsewhere, they are the truth. With infinite sizing options, so many cute fabrics, incredible owners, and gender affirming gear that you just can't find other places. We love to see it!

Cantiq Los Angeles

You may have seen me rocking this brand in some Instagram photos. When the owner reached out and asked if she could send me something I thought "there's no way this plus size lingerie will be good enough that I'll actually want to wear it" - I was SO wrong. Not only did I want to wear it, this brand actually converted me to a thong lover. I've never had plus size under things that fit me so beautifully and made me feel so sexy. They sell swim too! Up to size 6x.

Solstice Intimates

I love Solstice. You can customize anything in your size, and they have ready to ship pieces up to 3x. Perfect 70's trendy pieces that I want to line all my drawers with. There's velvet, tassels, sequin, and everything I've ever dreamed plus size babes would get out of lingerie. Their custom pieces start around $70 and they can make any size you need!

Tips for Finding the Perfect Plus Size Lingerie

  • Measure yourself accurately: Before shopping for lingerie, take precise measurements to determine your correct size. This step is crucial to ensure a comfortable fit. You can check out my video on taking your measurements here!
  • Know your body shape: Understanding your body shape will help you choose lingerie styles that flatter your figure and highlight your assets.
  • Consider fabric and comfort: Look for lingerie made from high-quality materials that offer stretch and breathability. Prioritize comfort without compromising on style.

Every one of us deserves to feel super sexy in our lingerie. Finding a store that fits your personality, and plus size pieces that make you feel excited is a fun part of the shopping experience. Consider it a little self care. Happy shopping babes!

  1. Any places you can recommend for those of us with small breasts? I need 40-42 A bras - SO hard to find!

  2. You should add the site adoreme. They have an amazing section of plus sized lingerie and especially bra/panty sets. Pretty much everything is 50$, but your first order is only 25. Its definitely my favorite!

  3. JUST WHAT I NEEDED. I LOVE LINGERIE. 😀 WHEE!! <3

    [this is really exciting, lol. I've been trying to find affordable lingerie in a 4x/size28, but a lot of sites just make my pockets cry!]

  4. Please don't forget Indie designers who will couture make to YOUR measurements, whatever they are. We do exist!

  5. Argh! I can't see me in any of these!!! Why can't they use models that are truly big like me? I have a large gut and NONE of the models give me a clue as to how I might look in these styles. So frustrating.

    1. I feel you so hard Kitten. I hate that. I wish I could wear EVERY PIECE and show it to you! lol <3

    2. @Kitten, I am totally with you on this. I am a typical apple shape where my stomach out measures my bra band size and my bum and hip size. Though all measurements are on the largest of sizes. I have folds ontop of folds lol and could never see me looking as good as the models. Half of which don't even look as if they are plus sizes.

  6. These sites never offer truly large bras I wear a 44H I'm stuck with lane bryant over priced trash. Also most of these look like something my grams had back in the 60s darn momo's. Also there are never no truly tight pants that shows off my beautiful round butt or shirts sexy enough to wear. I hate that polyester stretchy sweaty fabric.

    1. @Jaden Fivekiller, adoreme has a 42H, add a bra extender and fir the price of 1 "on sale" bra from lane Bryant you can get a cute and sexy bra and panty set. Happy shopping

  7. Oh god I am SOO glad I found your site, it helps me a lot! Here in Germany it's extremely hard to find cute things over 2x and that's super sad. I love your site, keep it up girl!
    Much love <3

  8. i love this site! Great advice and extra heaping helpings of self love and positive vibes make this my new go to page!

  9. I am a fan and always have been of bare necessities plus size panties and bras. They just make styles that fit my body the best. Got to love being a plus size woman. I don't have to impress anyone but me. Torrid also makes some great products as well.

  10. Customer service for Yandy on my VERY FIRST time shopping was rude, just plain rude. Didn't place the order, won't be back.

  11. You missed the best out there! http://curvygirlinc.com/ I met Jess Baker at one of Chrystal's events. She is a big advocate in the Fat Positive movement and caters specifically to our community. She surely has the biggest selection because unlike the others you listed, she doesn't sell clothes outside ger in addition to being specifically plus-sized. Its a gem!

  12. As a plus size girl myself, I didn't really think there were any options for me to get some nice lingerie or underwear. Recently I've started shopping at Torrid, but I'm also looking forward to trying some of the undies from Kim Kardashian's line!
