The same styles of sexy lingerie available in regular sizes are available in plus sizes too. There is no size limit to looking sexy and feeling fabulous. There is, however, a bit of a bias when it comes to making lingerie for plus-size women. Some fashion designers have finally stepped out of the Stone Age and now create fashionable clothing, undergarments and lingerie for plus-size women.

Measure your bust by wrapping the tape all the way around at nipple level. If your bra straps are weak or your bra is old and doesn’t support well, you might even need to add an inch or two. The bra band size falls at the bottom of the breast and around.

Find specialty shops that carry lingerie for plus-size women either online or in a physical store. Start with plus size clothing stores.

Look for lingerie for plus-size women that fits your body type and flatters you. If you are an inverted pear shape with large breasts and small legs, accentuate your breasts with lingerie that creates cleavage. Styles that emphasize this body type include a baby doll or teddy. Try on different styles in stores when available to get an idea of what style most flatters your full figure.

Invest in a beautiful teddy with a built-in corset and matching garter belt set. Look for stretch in satin, lace, nylon, knits and even heavier fabrics like velvet for winter. A fabric like straight cotton, silk, chiffon or jacquard are often not available with spandex or Lycra and if they don’t fit, you’re out of luck.
