Is plus sized modeling out of the question for me?
They’ll be holding auditions in my neck of the woods and I’m thinking "why the hell not? I’m tall." But I don’t wear plus sizes even though I’m too big to be a "regular" size model. Basically, I’m 5′9" with 40 bust 30 waist 42 hips and I wear a size ten in pants (but usually an 8 in dresses) and my top half is smaller by a bit (I wear small-medium sized shirts in juniors). Don’t hold back your comments, say whatever you like, but I’m aprehensive and don’t want to try out for something I have no business doing.
And I’m not ugly like the avatar, that would be a joke.
Actually, your measurements are fine for plus size modeling. In the industry, "plus size" is anything over 40" bust and hips. And you have the height. You also need to have a great face and firm, toned skin (no flab or cellulite)
Go for it – you never know.

and Motherhood Plus size.

What I noticed, lane bryant tends to run large, so you might want to order a size down. JcPennys ran pretty close to true to size, and Motherhood tended to run small in size, so order one size up. I have ordered from all of them, and have been happy with everything.
They also have them at Old Navy, and Target. But, I never really found anything there that I liked as much as these three.
Also, for the Motherhood has several stores that carry the plus size clothing, you can check the web sight at the store locator, and find them.
What Styles of Swimwear Do Plus Size Women Like?
My sister studies fashion design and I help her do an assignment on swimwear for full figure women. Please tell me which style you would pick/choose if you are plus size:
1- One piece swimsuits: V-neck, Halter or Square neck
2- Two piece swimsuits: Tankinis, skirtinis
3- Swimdresses
4- Softbras or Underwire swimsuit
5- Plain colour, mixed colours or stripes (vertical, horizontal)
All answers will be highly appreciated !
I am a plus size woman and I prefer a one piece with a sexy neckline such as a halter or plunge type to show off my "assets" and draw attention away from other areas.
Built in bras are a MUST for us plus size gals too! As far as colors – I prefer solid dark or bright colors. No pastels or flowery prints.
Swim dresses are a definate NO NO! Who wants to look like Ms. Piggy on the beach?
Can you please give me a plus size website store that sells shorts?
anyone know any good plus size clothes stores?
Hey anyone know any decent plus sized clothes stores? Ones with clothes that are cute and hip without looking frumpy and old? I feel that there aren’t many places that cater to the bigger women.
My new favorite is Alight.com. they aren’t real expensive, and they carry clothes that seem to be pretty hip and current. I’m obsessed with checking out their site!! I know what you mean about frump – who wants that?!
For a little more polished/professional look, I love JessicaLondon.com. I get a lot of my work clothes from that site.
A tip; anytime I buy online, I check out dealhunting.com to see if they have any coupon codes so I don’t have to pay full price!
