Do you think all clothing stores should have plus size options?

Question

Answer

I think if would probably be beneficial for them to be more size inclusive, but if they make all sizes they’d have lots of extras that would likely go to waste and then cause them to go under. I don’t understand all the ins and outs, but I do think a wider variety could be beneficial. In terms of “have to” I think all private owned business have a right to sell what they want, in the sizes they want, and that’s up to them/their team to decide.

Answer

Would be nice but no. If they don't have is because it's not economical attractive. This kind of intermission in the marketing just would make cloths more expensive to everyone.

Answer

When a regular sized store tries to make plus size clothes, they don’t make them well and don’t understand a plus size body or the cuts that compliment a skinny frame doesn’t for a plus size frame. And on top of that not everyone carries their weight the same some have larger belly and smaller legs a vice versa. Have you ever tried on the plus sized clothing from forever 21, it does not fit well like something that is made for a plus sized woman like lane Bryant or torrid. They don’t understand empire waist or “A line” or horizontal stripes or where you place the line between chest and belly makes your belly look bigger. And a lot of the times the quality of clothing fits different. I can wear 14-22 at lane Bryant. Depending if it’s stretchy fabric or shirred top for big boobs or At torrid I’m a different size too. Adding more fabric to a size 6 doesn’t make it plus size. You are better off getting them from a plus size store that caters and understands a plus size body. Plus size clothes are often more money. But I hit the clearance racks. And clean up when they have sales and deals. Pre virus lane Bryant used to have a deal that if you ordered site to store when you picked up the item they gave you 50% off a regular priced item and randomly ha e door busters a random item on sale 50% off dresses 30.00 jeans torrid usually has but 1 get 2 free in store on clearance or buy 1 get one half off regular prices. In the queen of shopping. Avenue.com, lane Bryant , torrid, old navy is trying on plus size but mostly online. Not every store has plus size. If it’s on sale I will even hit up jcpenny men’s big and tall. I got a men’s puffer winter coat for 20 bucks. And adidas zip up jacket for 9.99 I love clearance shopping. Jcpenny women’s goes up to 18 Macy’s to 24, hot topic is online only plus size and wait for 30% sale. You figure it out.

Answer

It would just be nice not to have to pay extra for clothes that look like they’re for my grandmother 😒

Answer

I accidentally chose yes, but no. Just like there are some stores that just or mostly cater towards plus size, there can be some that just or mostly cater to “regular” size. I do agree that sizes should be more standardized and that more stores should have both, but not every store should have to.

Answer

I’ll just shop elsewhere 😁

Answer

Yes. But I also think items should be priced according to material amount used.

Answer

I wish they would stop calling it plus size and just make the clothes bigger. After now smaller sizes are not label as minus size. Why have a label for everything that is out of the norm. It just reinforces stigmas.

Answer

I just wish there were more standardized across the board in terms of sizes. There is no reason why a 26+ at one store should be smaller than a 20+ at another. I know each fit is different but like damn! 
I do wish plus sizes were available at more stores. I’ve seen stores slowly start catering to larger audiences, which is nice to see size inclusion. I wish that the stores that do have a plus size section carry sizes larger than just a 22+. When I was a size 26+ my options for Jeans were pretty much just Torrid and a pair could easily run me $60-$80+ and frankly I didn’t have the money for that. So I would like to see stores that have started carrying plus to carry those other plus sizes in store and not just “well you can get a 24+ online”. 
However I don’t think companies should “have to” have a plus section. I literally just avoid the shops I know that don’t sell sizes above a 16.

Answer

I mean- the places I shop all have a plus size section lol.... Walmart, target, Ross, Burlington, DDs discount, forever 21, old navy.... I mean- sometimes the selection isn’t the best depending what area of town I go to (vegas) buttttttt I don’t think every single clothing store ‘needs’ to have plus though. Cause there’s Torrid that’s all plus which I love.. so they don’t need ‘regular’ sizes..
