Thank You, Plusstyle and Bratique Helene! For your Swimwear replies!

Thank you both for your info on Plus Size Swimwear and Large Cup Size Swimwear!
Bratique Helen, I wear a Fantasie one-piece suit. I love itsbust support! Unfortunately, because I am short, 5’ ½”, I have to wear a swim skirt over it, as the bottom half is a bit loose on me. So the next time I got one of their underwire tankini tops, which is just perfect! Fortunately they often make many swimsuits in full figure and large cup bra sizes with adjustable leg lengths, like one featured on my swimwear page and this one below. Fantasie also has a good variety of full figure bra sized underwire tankini tops too.

Like Freya's bras, I am planning to try a Freya tankini someday. As for Tara Grinna, even Lion’s Lair does not carry Tara Grinna swimwear in bra cup sizes G and over. Lion’s Lair, who Bratique Helene was nice enough to turn us on to, has an excellent selection of large cup size swimwear, and some plus size swimwear! They have some new styles of Freya and Fantasie swimwear that Bigger Bras, and possibly even Figleaves, does not have yet. Bigger Bras has more Tara Grinna styles, some new Storm-in-a-D-Cup. Lion's Lair has several other well known D cup and larger swimwear makers, and new Panache swimwear, at their site. Well worth browsing if you need bra sized swimwear. Thank you again Bratique Helene!

Plusstyle would appear to be an even bigger fan of AlwaysForMe
than even I! Who could blame her, they carry great swimwear, lingerie and active wear, all just for full figure women! I love their own swimwear lines, which they created, based on years of input from full figure women, and research. The other brands they carry, such as Carol Wior, as Plusstyle points out, are also excellent too! I featured their lots of their swimwear and some of their active wear on the plus size swimwear 4 you site, whose link you will find in this page’s right column. I also feature their intimates on my alluring lingerie page. You can check them all at Plussize in one spot!

About Plus Size Swimwear and Swimwear on Sale and bikini swimwear

Thank you John, who just today commented on how it is much easier to buy bikini swimwear in response to my blog here about sexy plus size swimwear from Baby Phat, of May 14th, 2007. This made me notice that when I changed this blog’s template in recent months, I neglected to put a link to the swimwear blog back up.
I am a big fan of Always for Me swimwear styles, which usually come in sizes up to 26W. This one below is on sale at 25% off! I hope to be small enough to wear their swimwear someday...


So today, I added under “The latest sales and styles of women’s plus size swimwear” links to:

• Our website, plus size swimwear 4 you, where you can find the latest styles. At the moment that site features a, this year’s, Baby Phat tankini and one piece plus size swimsuits, as well many other current and flattering styles.
• Our Full Figure Women’s Swimwear blog, where I post the sales and discounts as soon as I can. You will find sales posted there regarding women’s plus size swimsuits as well as large cup swimwear, under bra sized swimwear. If you need larger than a DD cup, you might want bra sized swimwear. If you do, like large cup bras, you might consider it quite pricey. I do my best to post the discounts and sales of these swimwear styles as soon as I can, and I look often too. I wear a J cup size, so you can pretty much count on me to be on the look out for less expensive, high quality large cup sized swimwear.
  
  

Here is a neat new addition to great place to shop for plus size swimwear. Now Swimsuits for All carries plus size bras lingerie, bra and panty sets and more for us full figure women! I understand their offer below is good all through April. So you can check out their new intimates and enjoy free shipping if you like what you find.
New! Plus Size Lingerie Collection - FREE Shipping on ALL Orders!! Use Code LGSHIP


About Plus Size Bikinis
The above-mentioned John gives us links to a bikini swimwear store. I checked it out and if you want bikini swimwear, theirs come in sizes up to 2XL, which according to their size charts is a bust 42DDD, waist 33/35 and hips 43/46. Tops and bottoms at that store are purchased separately.

Of the stores featured here to your right, Bigger Bras has Anita Swimwear, whose bikinis are sold as a complete two pieces by swimwear and cup size. There you will find bikinis in sizes up to 12H, 16G and 18E. That is what I have seen today. Figleaves also carried Anita swimwear, but I have not yet checked to see if they carry full figure bikini swimsuits.

Both Figleaves and Bigger Bras carry Fantasie swimwear, which comes in plus size and full figure bra sizes. Bigger Bras also carries Tara Grinna Swimwear which comes in bikini top sizes up to 42EE and bikini bottom and skirted bikini bottom sizes up to 3XL. Both Tara Grinna and Fantasie swimwear bikini tops and bottoms are sold separately.

I almost never write about plus size bikinis. Some years ago I saw a rather full figure woman at the beach in a comparatively smallish bikini. She had great skin! This made her whole appearance look good to me! I do not have great skin, so I would not try this, also I am a bit shy. I do figure if you have beautiful skin and feel comfortable in it, go for it! It is way to hot in the summer for clothes most of the time anyway!

Thank you Nye køkkener and again Bratique Helene! Found Large Cup Freya Bra for just $29!

Figleaves is having an up to 70% off sale! They have a nice selection of Freya Bras, as do most of the stores listed in the right column of my full figure bras page. Most of these stores have more bras in full figure bra sizes up to between D and G cup sizes. Bigger Bras, Bare Necessities, Figleaves and sometimes Her Room have the most large cup size bras, as in up to H to J or K cup sizes.
Today at Figleaves, this large cup, GG to J cup sizes Freya bra is just $29, sadly only in band sizes 30, 32, 34 and 38. Still if you need GG to J cup sized bras, it is worth checking out if you are not looking for 36.



There may well be other excellent finds, price wise, Figleaves during this sale on fine full figure bras, and matching panties too!

I really appreciate the style suggestions at Bratique Helene, see the blog roll to your right. Being full busted is a hard shape to fit, for both slender and plus size women.

Thanks again Bratique Helene!

20% off Women’s Plus Size Clothing!

Blair, like the Lane Bryant store I just posted about this Wed., is an excellent place to shop for plus size women’s clothing standards of all kinds. Unlike the afore mentioned liquidating Lane Bryant store, at Blair your satisfaction is guaranteed! Now till March 16th you can get 20% off your whole order by using code FQT when you check out!

This women’s suit jacket comes in sizes up to 26W and 20P! You’ll find this washable, yet fully lined, women’s blazer in 12 colors for just $40 to $45 at Blairs!


OK. So I like the classics as much as I like hip hop and urban fashions. You’ll find the classics at Blair’s where the price is nice.

Get 25% off already slashed prices on Plus Size Women’s Clothing!

Lane Bryant is a well know plus size women’s clothing store. Apparently, the Lane Bryant store that the link below will take you to is having a liquidation sale. You can get extra 25% off their all their apparel.

This extra discount ends today, 3/11/09, 11:59 PM MST. You can get an extra 25% off Lane Bryant’s already slashed prices by using code “L0311A” when ordering. If the code is not accepted, then try LO311A. It is either the letter O or the number 0, and the page that offer, and code, dose not always come up when I use one of their links.

This being a liquidation sale, the catch is there will be no returns.

I have noticed that there must be more than one Lane Bryant store. If you take a Lane Bryant link from Full Figure Plus, whose link is in my blog roll to your right, it takes you to an entirely different Lane Bryant store.

Additionally; Thank you Übergrössen Mode for your comment! If you take this Übergrössen Mode you will see a website, though I do not read this language, that appears to be not only plus size women’s fashions. The stylish cloting styles featured there are modeled on what are clearly full figure women. Not unlike AlwaysForMe.com
, but very much unlike Silhouettes, and other full figure women’s clothing stores site whose products I often feature here. I believe if you are a full figure women, it helps a lot to see styles featured on women nearer to a size 20W than a size 14W to get an idea of how this will look on you. Nice going Übergrössen Mode!

The last, now, it a brilliant red Freya Rio bra pictured in our previous post, except in a vivid red. Figleaves carries this bra is sizes up to 36B to G and 38DD to G.
I do not know how long the Freya buy one free offer will last, or if it will only be these 4 Freya Bras, but it is a very nice money saving offer if you like any of these bras.

New Plus Size Dresses and other Urban Fashions from Apple Bottoms

Apple Bottoms has several beautiful tops and dresses that might make you want to wear a strapless bra. I mention this because Figleaves 20% off sale ends at midnight tonight and they do have some nice strapless plus size bras, as I mentioned my last post. This denim tube dress is back in stock and is once again available in sizes 16 to 24! Apple Bottoms has a new chic and sexy subtly striped Twill Tube dress you can see at the top of our plus size dresses page now.

Also in new arrivals at Apple Bottoms, you will find these unique off the shoulder styles there in New Arrivals or you could just click on their pictures to browse or shop these beautiful full figure tops! The straps of this seemingly halter actually go very broad in the back. You might want to wear an adhesive bra of the variety I’ve suggest for the, sadly, out of stock dress by Apple Bottoms.

This rouched tank top comes in a bright raspberry color too. Its chain straps are actually adjustable and this top comes in sizes 1X to 3X.

Apple Bottoms also has lots of new and beautiful shirts you can wear regular bras with as well as black and sunny yellow rouched short-sleeved dresses in new arrivals as well! They have a very pink trench coat and jeans too!

20% Off Full Figure and Large Cup Bras and more until Feb 23rd!

Now, until midnight of 2/23 you can get 20% off anything you buy at Figleaves! They have an excellent section of full figure and large cup bras, as well as plus size shapewear, panties, and large cup size swimwear too!
For instance, these strapless plus size bras, which come in sizes 32, 34, 36B to G, 38C to FF and 40DD & E are now just $43.20! Better than even that, 3 women who review them, who wear G cup sizes, find their support excellent! One even says these bras are like magic, and goes on to say she now defies gravity!


Lots of plus size special occasion dresses are strapless or nearly. Some of the new maxi plus size dresses you will find now at Silhouettes and Avenue now would work better with a strapless bra too. Figleaves has some smaller cup strapless plus size bras, also at 20% off because of this sale too.
This Fantasie strapless bra comes in full figure sizes 34, 36, 38C to FF and 40 & 42D to E. They also have a smooth cup strapless bra by Fantasie in the same size ranges


Trendy plus size dresses and urban fashions by Baby Phat, Apple Bottoms and Rocawear have racer-backs this year. The lacy strapless bra by Fantasie shown above appears to have a 2 hook and eye back closure. That bra would work better for lower back styles like this Roca wear dress.

Alternatively, the lower back Apple Bottoms dress I kept showing here until it went out of stock.
Thought the back of this Rocawear dress is a, higher up racer-back style which either bra shown above would work well with.

Trendy plus size fashions now offer many off one shoulder style dresses and shirts too. Summer dresses, which would be really nice and literally cool to wear, often work better with strapless bras.

OK. So I made my point about strapless bras. So far I do not know about strapless large cup size bras for us women who wear larger than G cup sizes. Hopefully later I will find one, or more!

Naturally, Figleaves has many more styles of plus size bras, panties and shapers. So take advantage of their brief sale and enjoy your savings.

If you know of any larger cup, G to K, strapless bras, please let us here know!
Thank you!

20% Off Le Mystere Full Figure Bras and Urban Fashions on sale too!

Bare Necessities is having a 20% off sale on all their Le Mystere bras. These Le Mystere Carina full figure bras are now just $49.60! Use the 10% off banner in this page’s right column to your full discount! I tried these on once and the straps are SO VERY SOFT!! This is also a convertible bra, and Bare Necessities has it in sizes 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, and 44B to G!

Bare Necessities also has Le Mystere’s Dream Lace Camisoles on sale in the same range of plus size bra sizes in black, natural or white.

It struck me how nice this cami would look peeking out from under a vest I saw recently. I retraced my steps and found not one, but 3 Rocawear vests in full figure sizes! Not only are they all unique, come in sizes 1XL to 3Xl, and have a bit of spandex for ease of movement. All three of these vests are on sale!
This Rocawear vest below is nearly half price! Though not my 1st choice for the idea I had of a pretty feminine vest worn with urban fashions…The other 2 vests are nearly $20 off now and you can see them down a bit from the top of our women’s suits page. On the other hand, you could just click on this vest to go to Rocawear and select Jackets to see, actually 4, more trendy vests that all come in plus sizes.

I love vests because they hide a muffin top, while giving you a smooth and tailored look.
I really like the way Baby Phat, Apple Bottoms and Rocawear make unique twists on old standard clothing styles!

Get 15% off Plus Size and Large Cup Bras!

Now until 2/16/09 Bigger Bras will give you 15% off your order! Just use code “hearts” when you order. You will find a banner link to their store just to your right here!

You will also find plus size swimwear at Bigger Bras. Just go to DD+ swimsuits. In the right column select, See All from the Top Brands list. To your lower right you will see Swimsuits. I know Bigger Bras has women’s Miraclesuit swimwear in sizes up to 24W.

I know the Fantasie bra sized swimwear will fit full figure women. I wear a Fantasie one piece and tankini top my self and there is plenty of both room and support for my ample belly. I have every reason to suspect that the same is true of Freya bra sized swimwear. Many of these swimwear styles are on sale at 30% off too!

Another place to find plus size swimsuits at Bigger Bras is in Anita swimwear. Their swimsuits are both swimwear and cup sized!

Enjoy the extra savings at Bigger Bras while they last!

Unique Apple Bottoms Dress update & Great savings on luxurious Women’s Suits

The unique Apple Bottoms plus size dresses I apologized about being out of stock already is back in stock. I could have sworn it was available in more sizes yesterday but now it is available in sizes 14, 16 and 24. It was also available in size 22 just earlier today!

Womensuits is making a pick your 5 suit pack of their new Dorinda Clark designer suits! Just use this banner below to shop for 5 luxurious women’s suits up to size 26W for just $450! This is great if you need a small wardrobe of fine dress suits!



If you need new spring suits Womensuits will give you 10% off between now and 2/12/09 by using code “spring2009”. These new suits must have all just come into stock. This is one of those rare times I see a variety of new suits at Womensuits available in all sizes!

Baby Phat & Apple Bottoms Unique Plus Size Dresses

I apologize for not posting this original Apple Bottoms plus size dress below sooner. When I first saw it earlier this week, it was still available in sizes 18 and 22. Now it is out of stock. I am posting it here as an example of the really beautiful and unique styles you will find at both Baby Phat and Apple Bottoms in plus size dresses. I will likely be featuring their apparel more in the future on my plus size dresses page, before they go out of stock!

What first got my attention on these stores was the wide selection of dresses on sale at Baby Phat in plus sizes. They have plus size dresses on sale for as little as $20. Many of both these stores styles are suitable as eveningwear too. This one below is now $30 and available in sizes 1XL to 3XL

Currently Apple Bottoms sale dresses are a bit pricier than Baby Phat. Both stores have colorful, as well as black dresses in new arrivals. Both are featuring unique hoodie and banded bottom styles too. Both Baby Phat and Apple Bottoms give you the dress lengths in their descriptions. Especially handy when you are figuring out if a dress will work for you. You cannot really hem a banded bottom dress.

I love the fresh, original styles of both Baby Phat and Apple Bottoms and have some of their new styles featured on my above mentioned dress page.

I am still a big Silhouettes enthusiast too. They have lots of beautiful new dress style in new arrivals now too. As for excellent buys, in their Outlet store you will find plenty! Including these Onyx Nite stretch satin plus size special occasion dresses, now just $35 and still available in black in sizes 12, 14, and 18 to 24!


I also love the simple clean lines of Silhouettes’ new Gillian Grey women’s suits collections. There are some dresses and skirts in there too, with coordinating jackets!
Ok, so I like both trendy fashions, especially featuring the simple lines of the baby phat cat, and business classics like blazers and twin sets. Go figure?

Figleaves up to 70% off Intimates Sale to end soon

Figleaves’ long running sale will end Monday 1/26/09. So now is the time to take advantage of their great prices, should your size be in stock. I see they still have Goddess plus size bras in good supply in some styles.

Looking into that today I noticed this plus size lingerie style. Lately it seems to me that plus size shapewear is looking more like lingerie and at first I though this was a shaper, but it is not.


This underwire teddy from Ballet, maker of full figure bras and large cup swimwear, is semi sheer with floral embroidery and a key hole detail in the back.
It is available in sizes 34E and FF, 36D, DD, E and F, 38F and FF, 40D, DD, E, F and FF and 42E and F in the color shown above.

Yes Brigitte, E Bay is a great place to low cost Plus Size Fashions!

Brigitte replied to my last post directing us to DiscountPlusSizeClothing.Net. That site appears to be largely a site that directs the reader to EBay. EBay is a good place to get great value for your money!

I have written a bit about some EBay stores I look to often near the bottom of my Women’s Suits page. I cannot seem to get the links to EBay to work here on Blogger. On the women’s suits page I have direct links to “Plus Size Women’s Clothing Stores” and “Plus Size Petite Women’s Clothing Stores”. These are listings of EBay stores. You will find these links readily enough under Shopping Women's Suits at EBay on the above-mentioned Women’s Suits page.

I also have a direct link to “Career Wear at Curvaceous Clothing” one that page. I like what I find, quite often, at Curvaceous Clothing. Which are usually women’s designer suits for under $50! This store gets excellent marks from EBay shoppers and its current categories are Suits, Outfits, Blazers / Jackets, Shirts / Blouses, Sweaters and Swimwear. Among the many suit jackets you'll find there today is an Austin Reed size 14 for $16 and a Ralph Lauren blue silk jacket, size 18W, for $40!

You will find there are a multitude of plus size fashion stores to shop on EBay.

A sale and Discount on Fauve Full Figure Bras

While Bare Necessities and Figleaves bra sales run out of stock, Bigger Bras always seems to give us 10% off. Either on a banner like the one in this page’s right column, or on the pages of their store.

Now you can try Fantasie of England’s line of Fauve plus size and large cup bras on sale & with their standard discount!

This luxury Fauve bra above is on sale in fuchsia and jet colors now for $66. That price is down from its normal $110. Either way it is a bit too steep for me, but if you are looking for a lovely splurge for your self to share on Valentines day, could be a good bra for you. This plus size bra is still available in sizes 40 to 40E, F, FF, G and GG sizes.

Sorry about my previous post about ample supply of the Panache tango large cup bras being in good supply in its Jade color at Bare Necessities. Apparently, it was not. I believe I misread its availability. This is impossible to do at Bigger Bras!

Bigger Bras has other Fauve full figure bras on sale right now too. As well as the above bra’s matching panty still available in sizes XL and 2XL!

Moreover, Bigger Bras has lots of other brand of intimates on sale too. The nicest thing is their 10% discount seems to be always available. Ok, may be on occasion for a week or two, then it comes back! I have been watching their store for years and just like their good stock of full figure and large cup bras, they are consistent with this discount too!

New Plus Size Fashions and some continuing Discounts!

Sorry I have not been able to write in for a while. I will try to do better in the coming weeks. That should be easy when stores like Silhouettes have completely new fashion collections for us now!

Such as their new Gillian Grey lines of women’s suits collections!


This open front cardigan is from Their Gillian Grey Rayon Jersey line, as is the ruffled tank and wide leg pants in the pictured with. There are also dresses, skirts and longer sleeved blouses in this fashion line. All of this line drapes beautifully, packs and travels well, is lightweight for all weather wear and are washable!

Their Gillian Grey collection also features lined, double knit Ponte di Roma suit separates as well as washed linen and two way stretch suit collections. All simply cut, classic timeless lines that make it easy to go from business to causal, or simply add polish to your after work look! Be sure to use the money saving discount banner below to shop these suit separates at Silhouettes because you are sure to find some that will go well with your figure and the wardrobe you already have!



I will likely be featuring more of these suit separates and dresses from the lines of Silhouettes Gillian Grey collection here in the near future.

Continuing Discounts

While some sales have simmered down, largely due to reduced stock, and others are ended: The Panache large cup bras I mentioned in my last post are still in good stock in Jade. Now they are up to $19.99, still a great savings for an excellent bra that comes in cup sizes up to J. Fig leaves still has their up to 70% off sale going as well!

Most of the stores featured at Plus Size Women’s Clothing have standard sales, discounts, clearance or outlet sections year round. If I see any note worthy sales, I will post them here as I find them.
