+Size Alternative Fashion 2.0
Hey Fab Bats! A couple months ago I posted a +Size Alt Fashion masterpost that you were SUPER enthusiastic about. Some of you had great off-the-list suggestions, so I thought I’d do a 2.0 for you Bat Babes. I also dug around and included a few more masculine selections. Here’s where the fun is at:
- Candy Strike - Indie shop with artistically morbid designs for all sizes. The designer believes in “fearless fashion, smirks and unapologetic displays of style”.
- Domino Dollhouse - A wide range of clothing avec class. You can choose between petticoat colors as well.
- Hell Bunny - On the Rockin’-that-Psycho Billy side, as most +Alt fashion seems to be, but still incredibly Qute.
- Chubby Cartwheels - I LURV the designs going on here. Feeling the space galaxy witch vibe full force. Also the “Diet Industry Dropout” shirt kills.
- Hey Viv - Another Retro rollin shop. Only this one’s got a cheeky edge.
- Chic Star - A huge array of designs to choose from. You can submit your own style ideas for rewards as well.
- Carmakoma - Has an all black section with basics like turtle necks, sheer shirts and leather pants. Just missing a Smiths record and a coffee mug.
- Hello Holiday - Fancy-50s-Grunge imo. Mostly simple skirts, dress and lingerie.
- Retroscope Fashions - Steampunk attire for Ladies and Gentlemen gifted with acute time traveling skills! Grab your mustaches and place a custom order for larger sizes! Quite the extraordinary!
- Gentelman’s Emporium - Check out the larger sizes, chap.
- Kambriel - beautifully intricate gothic clothing with both masculine and feminine selections. Custom sizes.
- Rose Mortem - Beautiful handmade Victorian style wear with custom sizes. You can even choose your own colors although most of you will probably go for black.
- Deadhouse Dolly - Gothic fashion that also offers a fine selection of spooky accessories.
- Gloomth - gorgeous handmade clothing with custom sizes. This is how I imagine Wednesday’s wardrobe.
- Tunnel Vision - psycho 90s vintage craze. Also features model Alyssa Panda Eyes from Dining with Dana’s first interview!
- Living Doll - Grunge-ish. Particularly like the denim shorts although, for that price, you could probably just cut off a pair of jeans.
- Modcloth - Crying about this exquisite velvet bathing suit.
- Monif C. - Warning: colorful. They do, however, have a gorgeous collection of dresses and swimwear.
- Pinup Girl Clothing - 50s inspired +size fashion. A real way back trip with modern prints. A great alternative to Hell Bunny if you’re looking to step out of Psychobilly town or want to create your own take on it.
- Jacamo - Masculine wear that’s an inch more fancy than T-shirts and sweats.
- Corvus Corone - a hauntingly beautiful Etsy shop. Get ready to summon some demons in these outfits.
- The Pyramid Collection - Wiccan wear. I honestly commend them for calling large sizes “Goddess Sizes”.
- Sunheart Godess Clothing - caters to “small plus size godess gals”.
- Seraphim - Good for a witch’s night out.
- Ashley Nell Tipton - Currently on hiatus but will be back!
- Blue Fish Clothing - Neo-bobo looking at first, but on second thought these could make some great Mori outfits.
- Proud Mary - The definition of fattitude.
- Red Dress NYC - IMPORTANT. Varied in sizes and styles, plus one of the few alternative shops I have seen with a Masculine & Butch section.
Regular retail:
- Forever 21+ - be careful, their +sizes aren’t very big.
- H&M+
- Asos
- Torrid
Lingerie:
