Real talk: It’s not always easy finding chic plus-size clothing IRL. Way too often, the options are frumpy, cheaply made or look like they came straight out of a time capsule from the 1980s (and not in a good way). But, there are *tons* of retailers that are finally coming around to the idea that women exist above a size 14. Both online and bricks-and-mortar retailers are offering up extended sizes with a side of figure-flattering fits, trendy details and quality fabrics. Scroll down to see some of our current faves that are either located in Canada or ship to Canadian shoppers.
