Plus Size Clothing Manufacturers: 101 Guide for Fashion Brands

As a clothing brand, you may be wondering how to get your products into the hands of plus size women. Or, maybe you're just starting out and are looking for ways to make your new business more inclusive. The market for plus size clothing is growing rapidly, as more and more people become comfortable with their bodies and want to find clothes that fit well and look great. Finding plus size clothing manufacturers can be a challenge, but it's worth it to expand your customer base and build a more successful brand. In this guide, we will discuss the basics of manufacturing plus size clothing, from choosing a manufacturer to designing flattering cuts. We hope that by reading this guide, you will feel confident enough to enter the plus size clothing market! Plus size people need fashion options, too! So, let's get started!

1. The Stigma Around Plus Size Clothing

Plus size clothing has always been seen as a last resort for those who can’t find anything else to wear. Curvy women have long been neglected in the fashion industry, with most stores having a very limited selection of plus size clothing. And even when plus size clothing is available, it’s often expensive and not very stylish.

This has led to a stigma around plus size clothing, with many people believing that it’s not appropriate for “normal” people to wear. Plus size clothing is often seen as ugly, frumpy, and unfashionable. As a result, many plus size women feel self-conscious and embarrassed about their bodies, and often avoid wearing anything other than sweatpants and baggy t-shirts.

The good news is that this stigma is gradually changing. More and more fashion brands are starting to design plus size clothing that is both stylish and affordable. And as plus size women become more confident in their own bodies, the stigma will slowly disappear altogether.

2. What Is Considered Plus-size?

Plus size clothing is generally considered to be clothing that is larger than the standard sizes offered by most retail stores. The plus size category can vary in size, depending on the retailer or fashion brand. However, in the fashion industry, plus size is identified as sizes 18 and over, or sizes 1X-6X, and extended sizes as 7X and up.

If you’re looking for plus size clothing, be sure to check out the selection from some of the top plus size clothes manufacturers, such as Hongyu Apparel. Our brand offers a variety of wholesale custom clothing and private label for plus size items, from dresses and tops to pants and skirts.

3. Straight Size vs. Plus Size Clothing

There is a big difference between straight size and plus size clothing, and it is important for fashion brands to understand the distinction.

Here are some of the key differences:

Straight Size vs. Plus Size Clothing
Straight Size Plus Size
Straight sizes refer to sizes small through large for women or size 0-14. Plus sizes are built to fit a fuller waist, which is more common in plus size body types.
Straight sizes are more commonly found in U.S. retailers than in plus sizes. Plus size grading also takes into account how other proportions and body shapes change as size increases. These sizes are written as 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, and beyond. Numeric sizes are written as 18W-24W.
Straight sizes garments are typically made with less fabric. Plus size garments are often constructed with more fabric to accommodate a larger figure. There is typically more variation in plus size clothing, as there are more plus size body types than straight size body types.

So if you’re a fashion brand that wants to cater to plus size women, be sure to work with a wholesale plus size clothing manufacturer! They will help you design clothes that flatter curves and make plus size women look and feel their best.

4. Plus Size Sizing Guide

Plus size clothing is not limited to a certain size range. It typically refers to garments that are larger than the traditional size ranges offered by most retailers. This type of clothing is designed to fit plus-size women and men, and it is becoming increasingly popular in the fashion industry.

If you want to see a sample of plus size women’s clothing size, here’s a rough guide:

  • Plus size dress: size 8-14 (US) or 40-44 (EU)
  • Plus size top: size 16-18 (US) or 46-48 (EU)
  • Plus size bottom: size 20-24 (US) or 50-54 (EU)

However, if you want a more accurate guide, here is a link to a plus size sizing guide to get you started. Every country and every label has its own plus size standards, so it’s important to do your research before you start your own boutique clothing for plus size line.

5. Plus-size Clothing Patterns Cut

There are a variety of plus size clothing patterns that can be used when creating plus size clothing. When it comes to plus size womens clothing, there is no one specific pattern that will work for every person. It is important to find the right pattern for your customer’s body type and measurements.

Some of the most popular plus size clothing patterns include:

A-line

The A-line dress is a great choice for plus size women because it helps to disguise problem areas. It has a flowy, comfortable fit that makes it a popular choice for everyday wear.

Empire Waist

The empire waist dress is a popular choice because it creates a flattering silhouette for plus size women. With an empire waist, the dress fits snugly around the bust and then flows outwards towards the hem, which helps to create the appearance of a smaller waistline.

Wrap Dress

The wrap dress is figure-flattering and stylish. It cinches at the waist and then wraps around the body, creating a snug fit. This style of dress is perfect for plus size women who want to show off their curves in a flattering way.

Shift Dress

The shift dress is a simple, yet flattering, style of dress that can be worn by plus size women. It has a straight cut that falls down the body without clinging to curves. This makes it a great choice for plus size women who want to avoid accentuating their problem areas.

Peplum

The peplum dress is a fun and flirty choice for plus size women. It has a ruffled or flared bottom that adds a touch of femininity to the dress. Peplum dresses are great for plus size women who want to show off their sense of style.

These are just a few of the many plus size clothing patterns that are available. When choosing a pattern, it is important to keep in mind the individual’s body type and measurements. By doing this, you can ensure that the plus size clothing you create will be flattering and stylish.

8. 4 Cost Factors You Should Be Aware of

When it comes to starting out a plus size clothing, there are a few things you need to be aware of in terms of cost. Here are four factors to keep in mind:

#1 Material Cost

The cost of the materials used will play a big role in the overall cost of plus size clothing. If you’re looking to use higher-end materials, you can expect to pay more for your garments. Conversely, if you’re willing to use lower-quality materials, you can save some money.

#2 Labor Cost

You need to consider the cost of labor when deciding where to make your plus size clothing. Bulk plus size clothing suppliers in low-cost countries often have lower labor rates, but the quality of their clothing may not be as good as those in high-cost countries. However, the higher labor rates in high-cost countries usually mean that the quality of the clothing is better.

#3 Shipping Cost

The cost of shipping plus size clothing can also add up. If you’re shipping from a low-cost country to a high-cost country, you can expect to pay more for shipping. However, if you’re shipping plus size clothing from a high-cost country to a low-cost country, you may be able to save on shipping costs.

#4 Taxes And Duties

Another cost to be aware of is taxes and duties. When plus size clothing is shipped from one country to another, there may be taxes or duties that need to be paid. This can add to the cost of the clothing, so it’s something to keep in mind when budgeting for your plus size clothing line.

If you’re starting a plus size clothing line, it’s important to be aware of the costs associated with manufacturing plus size clothing. By understanding the cost factors, you can make sure that you’re getting the best value for your money.
