Tall and Plus Size? Refresh Your Wardrobe With These 11 Must-Have Picks

Tall and plus size fashion finds

When it comes to plus fashion, people of all shapes, sizes, heights, and style choices should have options. No matter how much plus size fashion progresses, there is always room for growth! There are still those of us who have constant struggles. Shopping for clothes should be easy and exciting. It should never feel like a battlefield. You shouldn’t leave the store or online shopping feeling wounded and scarred.

Tall and plus size fashion finds
Shainna Tucker of @Thickgrlscloset

The other day I was on my favorite app Twitter and doing what I love doing most, talking about fashion. Someone I followed was talking about her struggles about being tall and plus. As a petite plus size lady myself, we have our own struggles when shopping, and I had never really considered the hassles that tall plus size women go through. I knew I needed to come here and offer some help.

The complication that most tall plus size women (or anyone looking for plus size clothes for tall people) encounter are brands with tall options, but none for plus sizes, or the options are far in between, which is extremely unfair.

While doing some research, I see the issues and how this can be a total disaster. There are many pants and jeans options, but when it comes to maxi dresses and simply long dresses, this is where the dilemma shows its ugly head. Don’t worry, though… we got you! 

Let us take some of the stress away and make shopping for you taller folks a little easier. You deserve stylish options that will have your wardrobe looking phenomenal. Let’s do a little shopping.

Tips for Finding Plus Size & Tall Options Online

  • Carefully read the product size and description. Most online stores will provide the height of the model. This information will let you know where will the garment hit on your body. If the model is short you know this piece will be a lot shorter on you.
  • Follow tall plus size bloggers. They are informed and will save you a lot of time. You can see where they shop, find new stores and see how the garment looks on someone else before purchasing anything.
  • Knowing the length of your inseam will take away the unfortunate situation of returning online purchases. Women who are 5’8 and taller your inseam is 34”-36”.

Shopping online shouldn’t feel like a chore. It should be as effortless as possible. Of course with anything there are some kind obstacles. Being tall and plus size looking for stylish clothes definitely shouldn’t be a job. Remember to be patient and keep your eyes open for new brands and online stores expanding their sizes.

Who are your favorite tall plus size brands? Where do you find your biggest struggles and how do you prevail? We can’t wait to hear from ya’ll.

    Thank you for thinking of we tall, plus size ladies. I find it so hard to find clothing long enough and in a size 22. Thank you.

    Know Thy Measurements!!!!! It’s not only about the inseam of a pant but also the length of your torso. Found out the hard way. I’m 5’10” and figured buying tall jeans would work….nope! Turns out I need a 31″+ top….my height is on my topside to include sleeve length (which would explain why everything became a 3/4 sleeve). Game changer once I figured it out. Most plus size tops are 26″ – 28″ in length. Way too short for my comfort. If I see it listed at 28″ but the picture of the model shows it down to her mid thigh…I know she’s much shorter than I am by a lot! I pass it up. Look for “tunics” to help cull through the shorter lengths. Measure, measure, measure!!!! Not for the faint of heart but you will become much more successful once you stop wasting time on items you end of hating / returning.
