I’m a fashion editor who window-shops obsessively *for fun,* and I happen to be plus-size. I enjoy developing my personal style and throwing together exciting yet chic plus-size outfits just as much as the next fashion person, but the fat-fashion-lover struggle is a particular one. All plus-size folks know how demoralizing it feels to see a beautiful garment on a straight-size pal and fight to find something just as cute in larger sizes. The search feels hopeless at times, but I’m here to make it a little bit easier by clueing you in on cool plus-size-friendly retailers with chic clothing finds from across the internet.
Whether you’re looking to update your wardrobe or completely overhaul your closet, I’ve selected pieces for every kind of shopping need. Ahead, shop an array of goods across every category you can think of. From reliable jeans and unique outerwear pieces to black-tie-appropriate dresses, the selection below has a plus-size-friendly piece that’s bound to catch your eye.
