Let’s talk about plus size *AND* LGBT owned brands! This month on The Curvy Fashionista, we’re celebrating Pride Month by spotlighting LGBTQ+ creators, fashionistas, businesses owners and members of our community!

Plus & LGBT-Owned Brands

When putting together this list of plus and LGBTQ-owned brands, I did my best to gather up resources — pulling from brands I personally know and love, as well as asking for submissions via social media.

That said, I know that there are brands missing from this list — and it can be a bummer to open up a list like this and NOT see yourself. I’ve been there! For that reason, we invite you to “self-nominate” and comment below if you’re a fit! We’d love to include all members of our community who should be on the list.

You ready?

Let’s go!!

Plus Size & LGBT-Owned Brands

We're excited to share all of these plus size and LGBTQ+-owned brands. Let's get to it! <3
