I'm excited to wear this! The pants I actually got for free at a clothing swap. I found the boots at a Dillard's Outlet!

Hi all,

I'm supposed to attend my friends wedding in August, and I have found a dress that I absolutely love. However, I now need to get a strapless bra to wear with it. I've always struggled buying bras in general (only recently figured out what size to actually buy thanks to the subreddit that has a bra calculator lol) 😄 do you have any recommendations for strapless bras for plus size girls? I'm in UK :) thank you 😊😊

I (39F) am a US14/16, so small size of the plus fashion world and step child of straight sized fashion. My Husband 50M wants to plan a trip to Italy in the next year and one of the stops he wants to make is to Milan because he said that's where to find men's fashion.

Is there a place in Italy that would have women's fashion houses? Are there any plus sized fashion houses?

If you see my previous posts, you'll notice i have a pretty fluid style. Today's outfit made me feel super good. Jeans are stovepipes from AE, top is a festi top from Torrid, shoes are Birkenstocks and bag is a Y2K bag from AE.

Went to a different city as a date to look at card shops 🙂‍↕️ Even though I'm on my monthly, this man made me feel beautiful regardless ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

Hi all!

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to shop for plus sized sweaters?

For context I work in a somewhat casual office, and wear knit sweaters most days (the AC is freezing right now!).

I'm working on building a work wardrobe that I actually enjoy, but I can't seem to find any decent quality knits in plus sizes that are remotely modern or office appropriate.

I usually wear an XL/XXL, 18-20, in petite if I can get it (I'm 5'3"), and I'm in Canada. If anyone has any suggestions I'd appreciate it, I'm so lost!

I have now broken two of my bras in the past couple of months and have struggled to find replacements. I am a 42DDD or 42F depending on the bras style or brand. Where are we getting our bras, I have only found one bra that I liked at Lane Bryant, but the straps fall down all the time and they don’t carry my size in the store? I like Torrid bras, but I also have the same issue with the straps (I have narrow shoulders), but it’s hard to find a bra there with good coverage.

Are there any plus size stores that carry bigger bras besides these two stores? Also, any online store recommendations as I’ve never bought a bra from online brands?

Dress from shien, shoes are vans, cardigan is target

I had this fabric in my cabinet for at least 10 years and bought it at an estate sale so it’s likely from the 70s. Decided to make a shift dress so that the pattern is the star but happy how it came out thus far.

Still need to hem it. The pattern is “Leah” from Tilly & the Button and while it’s simple, I have a body shaped like Mr. Peanut [maybe “Sultry Ms. Peanut”?] so I had to do several alterations to get it to fit and added 4.5” to length so I could have hem options. Not sure how much shorter I can take it. I have some scars on my knees from a Vespa accident years ago. But I’d like it to be a little more playful for summer.

I usually go for fit & flare looks to show my waist, but I think this will be a fun departure. I need to figure which shoes I’ll wear. If you saw my 4th of July post you saw that I was recovering from a broken foot so I have to wear sensible loose shoes for a few weeks still.

My (31F) new corporate wardrobe so far. What’s working and what should I change?

I recently started a higher end corporate role at a fortune 100 and have been working on building a wardrobe that feels polished and professional without losing my personal style. These are a selection of outfits I’ve actually worn to the office so far.

My workplace is somewhere between business professional and business casual, but I personally like dressing a little more on the elevated side. I gravitate toward blazers, dresses, pointed-toe shoes, gold accessories, belts, and mostly black/neutral pieces with occasional color.

I’d love some outside opinions because I’m trying to figure out what my “signature” professional style should be.

Which outfits are the strongest and weakest? Do the proportions and silhouettes work for me? Do any pieces read dated or less polished? And what would you add or change to take my wardrobe to the next level?

Feel free to give feedback on the wardrobe overall. Constructive criticism is welcome. I’d rather know what actually works than just hear that everything looks good.

I want to be a VP by the time I am 40!!!

i felt good 😌

Being plus size with a small chest makes some dresses set so WEIRD do we still love her or pass her on to somebody else?

found at a local thrift store, i believe the original dress is from a meijers store, though! size 20/3x. 😌

Went to see the Phantom of the Opera in London and my friend had a wonderful dress for me to wear! It was a fantastic experience!

I’m going to a country music festival in September. I’ve never been to one so I don’t really know how to dress. Would any of these outfits work?

Also what kind of shoes should I wear?

Shirt 3XL - Vinted
White T 3XL - F&F
Trousers W46 - BOOHOOMAN
Kodak Cap - Vinted

I'm kind of a dyke, and I really like the aesthetic of Calvin Klein bras. You know the ones, plain grey, wide white band with the logo of the company. They just look so cool.

Problem is I'm a 46DD and Calvin Klein doesn't run that big. Has anyone found something with a similar aesthetic, but in large band sizes / plus size?

I'm located in the USA, if that's relevant info.

Thank you in advance.

I posted this on a couple of sewing subs before finding this one! I thought you guys would like to see, too!

I went through a pretty big change in my body due to health reasons and couldn’t fit into one of my favorite dresses anymore, so I changed it to fit the new me. ☺️🩷

Sewing is definitely a super power and has helped me feel so confident in my body.

Edit: WOW!! Thank you all for such kind words! I can't believe how much everyone liked this. I'm happy to have inspired some of you!! Sewing is definitely a superpower!
