“The truth is, the other person in your bed is just so happy that you want to have SEX with thesm that they aren’t focused on your imperfections. They are INTO you, and into the fact that you are into them sexually. Live out loud and let go of your insecurities, and that is when your sex life can become smoking hot.
It’s when you are ready to be NAKED in the emotional way as well as the physical way that it gets really good.”

Bodies. We’ve all got ’em, and we all deserve to flaunt ’em. If you’ve ever been part of a Facebook discussion where 99% of the clothing stores people recommend are way too small for you, this is your fat-positive roundup of plus-size and extended plus-size Valentine’s Day and everyday lingerie and underwear.
I’ve listed the largest size each store and website carries so you don’t have to hunt for size charts, plus a brief description of what the business carries. I’ve broken down your options into three categories: Large Fat (size 32+), Medium Fat (24-32), and Small Fat (18-24). Some people in the “large fat” arena also identify as superfat, infinifat (coined by Ash at The Fat Lip), or deathfat (because of the difficulty those of us at higher weights have in accessing healthcare, and to thumb our noses at the concept of being so fat we should have keeled over dead five minutes ago).
Some people who wear plus sizes identify with these labels, and some don’t. Either way is fine! If these category names don’t resonate with you, just look for the number sizing. No matter what terms you prefer, this resource list is an excellent source of sexy lingerie to wear for boudoir photo shoots, special occasions or everyday luxury.
Fattest folks to the front of the line, please!
And because I’m tired of the fattest folks always having to look at the back of every clothing rack, scroll to the end of every list, and deal with the good stuff always being out of stock, I’m covering the largest-available sizes first. When you find your size category, all the categories beneath it on the page should work for you, too. (All sizing below is American sizing.)

Traditionally, when brands extend their sizing from exclusively straight sizing, the plus sizes are made by the brands just grading measurements up from their existing smaller sizes. This method doesn’t consider the plus-size community’s incredibly diverse proportions, with certain brands only using one or two fit models to help develop their extended sizing. promises to provide optimized front coverage, full back coverage, a stay-up waistband, and wider leg openings for larger sizes.

“Being a curvy girl, I struggled with fit and support all my life, at a 36J , I was wearing a 38DDD, which was horrible, playing sports was brutal as well as formal events at school. As I got older I started ordering my bras from U.K because they had larger cup sizes, well that turned hellish as customs and time were not in my favor. This is what prompted me to start Hourglass Lingerie. To help EVERY woman get the perfect fitted bra, not the perfect bra, but the perfectly FITTED bra!
» Dawn Mumaw, owner and operator or Hourglass Lingerie
I have been in business for over 8 years, we are a small family run business in Baltimore MD, we have a boutique feel with a warehouse inventory! Our sizes range from 28-56 A-O cups. Although, we have every size range our niche is full figured/ full busted, as this size can’t be handled everywhere properly. This range is where I love doing my fittings, seeing the difference in the way ladies look and feel when being properly fitted puts a smile on my face every day, and knowing I am helping them find the support they have been after for years.”
This small business in Maryland is passionate about helping women who struggle to find bras that actually fit. Dawn started her business out of that same struggle, and it’s nice to see a business that focuses on large bra sizes.

There is not a single person who is not welcome to model for us. We will never crop out our model’s heads, make them model without their glasses, or depict them in a negative, weak, angry, or bored light. Our models are also never, ever photoshopped or airbrushed.”

Snag Tights
Largest size: 32
Smallest size: 2
Size chart
Price range: Around $10-14
Normal tights vary in length, but not by width, which is why it can be such a struggle to find tights that actually fit. Snag’s tights are genuinely different sizes, which means they vary in height, width and around the waist so they fit every body shape.
I’ve heard nothing but good things about Snag from the plus-size fashion community. In addition to plain and patterned tights in a variety of fun colors, Snag also offers fishnets and chub rub shorts.

Bear Skn
Largest size: 6X (60″ waist)
Smallest size: S (28″ waist)
Size chart is located on each product page
Price range: $20-25
I’m married to a fellow who wears the high end of plus size (or rather, big and tall) himself, and his experience in finding underwear is way, way harder than it should be. We femme folks have a much easier time of it these days, because at least we have options. Masculine undie options are (way too) slowly increasing, though, and Bear Skn is standing above the crowd at the moment with cute, butter-soft boxers and briefs up to 6X (about a 60″ waist). I found that these boxers gave my cis female wide hips a wedgie, but they work perfectly on my cis male hubby.
These pieces are somewhat delicate, so definitely hand wash and air dry them, and don’t go sitting on concrete in your bare Bear Skns. With proper care they last quite a while, though, and the Bear Skn folks have been fantastic about replacing a couple of pairs that wore out way too soon.

Bare Necessities

Price range: $32-74
Bare Necessities sells a collection of lingerie from many different designers. You’ll find an extensive range of lingerie types here, with lots of options in the brand’s plus-size lingerie section. If a leather-trimmed bodysuit with a built-in harness is your style, you can find that at Bare Necessities. If you prefer a simple, see-through robe, you can get that here too. You can even get a full-body, crotchless fishnet suit.

Smallest size: 0X (14/16, 41″ bust, 45″ hip)
Size chart
Price range: Around $9-70
I wouldn’t have thought of the generally-frumpy chain Catherines as a source for hot plus-size lingerie, but occasionally these folks have a major breakout in the sexy department. I haven’t been in their brick-and-mortar stores in years, but I bought a smoking hot silver crushed-velvet babydoll and robe from their website last year, and it looks like they’ve gotten in on bralettes recently too. Worth an occasional look.
Shop: Catherines
Curvy Girl Lingerie
Largest size: 28/30
Smallest size: 12/14
Size chart: Depends on brand
Price range: Around $22-60
Curvy Girl is one of my favorite lingerie stores. They carry up to size 28/30, and the owner Chrystal is unapologetically fat positive. That means there’s no body shaming in their materials or promotions, and the blog is full of rare, amazing practical advice on sex for fat bodies (and sex toy reviews like my own review of the Womanizer Plus). Chrystal also actively advocates for manufacturers to expand their size ranges, heading to trade shows every year to talk directly with the manufacturers’ reps about the wide-open opportunities to capture the market for plus-size lingerie.

Elomi
Largest size: 46K bras, 4X or 18 apparel
Smallest size: 32D
Fitting guide
Price range: Around $10-48
Elomi is Wacoal’s bra line for larger busts, and many of my friends swear by them. The company’s description says, “Elomi lingerie is designed for women like you who embrace your curves and make the most of what you have been blessed with.” Since they use smallfat models for many of their pieces, it’s a bit easier to see what the bras might look like on a fat body, and the designs are cute and modern.
Shop: Elomi
Eloquii

Smallest size: 12 (41.5″ bust, 45.5″ hips)

Price range: Around $45-80
Eloquii is carrying some of 2019’s hottest plus-size lingerie right now, and I’m here for it. Their bodysuits are absolutely stunning. They’re also working with blogger Chaya Milchtein, shown above, to demonstrate how their pieces work on a larger body that’s not an hourglass shape, which is really handy. Representation matters. (Here’s more of Chaya + Eloquii.)

Hips & Curves
Largest size: 6X (size 30, 62-65″ bust, 66-69″ hips)
Smallest size: M (size 10, 34-37″ bust, 38-41″ hips)
Size chart
Price range: Around $18-52
Hips and Curves was the first appealing plus-size lingerie site I ever encountered, and it remains one of my favorites. The site isn’t as flashy-glamorous as Victoria’s Secret, but in its quiet elegance it treats large bodies as worthy of respect and eschews the tawdriness of the sex-shop-esque sites. I highly recommend Hips & Curves for hosiery, bustiers and costumes.

Lane Bryant
Largest size: 32 (60″ bust, 62.5″ hip)
Smallest size: 10 (38″ bust, 40.5″ hip)
Size chart
Price range: Around $17-70
This brick-and-mortar chain is the fat woman’s Old Reliable. Frumpiness levels vary over time, and the quality usually doesn’t match the pricing, but the stores are easily accessible — in almost every mall, and some stand-alone locations — and carry a wide range of sizes. Their new bralette line is worth a look, even for large busts, and they’ve started carrying the strappy-back panties that until a few years ago were limited to straight sizes.
Shop: Lane Bryant
Torrid
Largest size: 6 (6X, size 30, 66-70″ bust, 72-76″ hip)
Smallest size: 00 (M/L, size 10, 38-40″ bust, 42-44″ hip)
Size chart
Price range: Around $10-80
Ahh, Lane Bryant’s younger sister, the mall’s newer standby for plus-size clothing. Torrid has its issues — a yearning to cater to smaller and smaller women, failing to stock their largest sizes in-store — but for trendy plus-size clothing you can actually try on in person, they can’t be beaten. Torrid was one of the first to start offering sexy plus-size bralettes, and they’ve been carrying smoking-hot lingerie forever. I recommend shopping their website for a better selection.
Shop: Torrid
Emma Alamo

Price range: Around $4-385
Emma Alamo creates custom handmade leather harnesses for queers and femmes. She designs her harness for fashion and function and customizes them to all body types. Emma Alamo makes strong, hand-made, quality harnesses. Their stuff is not bulky, has a strong femme vibe to it, but it’s also functional. It’s not going to fall apart.

Price range: Around $40-50
The outfits are primarily belly-covering bodysuits and teddies, but anyone looking for something more revealing can also find a formfitting, see-through baby doll with garters.

Adore Me
Largest size: 46G
Offering sizes up to 46G, Adore Me is a nice new option for unique bras and panties. When I searched for the closest equivalent to my size, a 44DD, over 100 options came up. The company also offers a monthly plus-size lingerie box of the “pay for what you keep and send the rest back” variety, a nice option for those of us sized out of mainstream versions of these curated boxes.

Founded in 2015, gc2b is a trans-owned company based in Maryland. gc2b’s founder, CEO, and designer, Marli Washington, saw that the only binding options were uncomfortable and inadequate compression shirts designed for cis men. As a University of the Arts Industrial Design graduate, he used his experience in product design and his back ground in textiles to provide accessible, comfortable, and safe binding options designed by trans people, for trans people. gc2b binders were the first garments designed and patented specifically for gender-affirming chest binding.

JBC Lingerie
Largest size: Aus 20 underwear (about a US 16), 43″ underbust bras, plus custom measurements

SexyPlus focuses on, you guessed it, sexy plus-size clothing. Though their clothing line doesn’t seem to extend beyond a 3X, their lingerie goes up to 5X and offers some unique options. Shown above is blogger Chaya Milchtein — she also has some great unisex Valentine’s gift ideas.
Shop: SexyPlus
Sock Dreams
Largest size: 24-32, depending on the item
It may seem strange to include a socks-only shop in an underwear roundup, but socks count as undies too, and Sock Dreams is the place to go for them. Not only does this Portland, OR-based store carry a huge range of plus-size socks online, they test them on actual large bodies and then report in detail on the fit. If you’re able to take your own body measurements, you’ll be able to see exactly which items will fit you — no more guessing and then not being able to return ill-fitting items. (They’re even carrying the wonderful We Love Colors plus-size tights these days.)

Tomboy X
Largest size: 4X (26/28, 55-56″ hip)
Smallest size: XS (33-34″ hip)
Price range: Around $20-36
Non-binary and Gender nonconforming people deserve to have underwear options too, and Tomboy X delivers up to a 4X (about a size 26/28). This new-ish LGBT-affirming company is dedicated to offering sustainably-made, eco-friendly undies that are also pretty darn cute. Their 9″ boxer briefs are the only ones I’ve tried that don’t give me a massive wedgie, and the 4X fits my 58″ waist. I wear them under jeans to prevent chafing, but they’d be hella sexy for a person-next-door boudoir session, too. (See some of their goods on a plus-size woman of color.)
Shop: Tomboy X
Unlucky Lingerie
Largest size: 44G or 24
Possibly my favorite lingerie designs in this entire guide, and the one I most wish was more inclusive in their sizing. Gorgeous designs! More about them: “Favouring black, like your ex’s soul, the garments are constructed with sheer mesh, vintage lace and, jersey fabrics. Pops of colour can be seen through out the collection, and the individual samples are often reflective of rainbows, opting for constructed vintage garments and every day wear.”

Uye Surana
