Shopping for lingerie isn’t always as fun as it sounds, especially for curvy babes. That’s because some brands think “plus-size” means a DDD cup and a 32-inch band size. (Our backs hurt just thinking about that.) Fortunately, these are some of the best plus-size lingerie brands are here to help just in time for Valentine’s Day.
Busty bombshells like to get down and dirty in the bedroom just as much as straight-size gals do. We love that these brands are changing the game started by she-who-shall-not-be-named (cough *Victoria* cough) with size-inclusive styles.
Be prepared with a mop to wipe up your partner’s drool after it floods the bedroom this Valentine’s Day. That was gross, but you get our point, you sexy queen, you.
12 of the Best Plus-Size Lingerie Brands to Wear This Valentine’s Day
1. Curvy Kate
With styles up to 44K, Curvy Kate is about to become your new best friend. Sorry, Marissa. It’s nothing personal, but we need someone more supportive.
You’ll fall in love with this UK brand, which offers lingerie, swimwear, lounge wear, and any other kind of wear you can think of. Don’t worry, it’s available in the States, too!
2. Anya Lust
Anya Lust is a Black-owned lingerie brand that carries sizes up to 4X, with a wide range of cups and bands. The selection varies on a scale from “Bond girl who’s cooler than Bond” to “sex pot kitten meets garden nymph meets dominatrix.” Yes, they’re that good.
3. Savage X Fenty
The Rihanna-owned Savage X Fenty has been a favorite for plus-size ladies since it launched in 2018. The brand includes sizes up to 3X and bras going up to 42H.
This lingerie really puts in the work, work, work, work, work. The only thing it can’t do is headline the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show. But we would love to see it!
4. LoveHoney
Want a little love, honey? Then, you should grab some lingerie from LoveHoney. And then maybe download Tinder?
You’ll find everything you need for a sexy night at this one-stop shop for all your fantasies. Again, minus the partner. That’s on you. Sizes run up to 30, and there’s even a full-body catsuit so you can act out your Batman and Catwoman dreams. It’ll be purrfect.
5. Ann Summers
Similar to LoveHoney, the U.K.-based brand Ann Summers sells everything you need for a night of fun, from toys to lube to lingerie.
And, they carry sizes up to a 44H. Ann, you can hang with us anytime. Just don’t forget the chocolate body paint. And a bag of Cheetos.
6. Love, Vera
No, Vera Wang did not get into the lingerie business – there’s another Vera on the fashion scene now.
The Black-owned brand Love, Vera is striving to make lingerie more inclusive for everyone. And with band sizes going up to 44 and cup sizes up to H, we’d say they’re making some pretty significant strides in that arena.
7. Oh La La Cheri
When you put on a bodysuit from Paris-based Oh La La Cheri’s Curve collection, be prepared to yell, “Oui! Oui! Oui!” all night long. Or however you say “harder,” “faster,” and “more whipped cream, please” in French.
This plus-size lingerie company carries sizes up to 4X. Anyone up for a little ménage à trois this Valentine’s Day? Or a ménage a dix if you’re really, really lucky and fully stocked on caffeine.
8. Cuup
Lingerie brand Cuup has a collection with band sizes through 44 and cup sizes up to H. With a variety of tones including pops of color and neutrals to match every skin tone, you’ll end up wearing Cuup bras every day.
Or at least on the days when you normally wear bras. Our girls enjoy a lot of unstructured play time.
9. Lavinia Lingerie
With bras up to 38J and intimates up to 5X, the Virginia-based Lavinia Lingerie gives off “Hollywood starlet about to bathe in a bathtub of champagne and diamonds” vibes. Excuse us, we need to go buy some Veuve.
10. Simply Be
Simply Be is simply changing the world of plus-size lingerie. This UK company carries up to a 58 band and an O cup in U.S. sizes.
The website even offers a quiz to help you find your right size. No more ordering bras that will just sit in the back of your closet, awaiting the day they magically fit because they’re too pretty to get rid of. New idea: art installation.
11. Playful Promises
What does “playful” mean to you? Is it whips and paddles? Or is it teasing your partner with robes that look like they came out of Mae West’s closest?
However you play, Playful Promises, has it in size up to 44K. As Mae West herself once said about curves, they’re “the loveliest distance between two points.” She knew her stuff, which evidently also included geometry.
12. Thistle and Spire
You know what they say: a little thistle will make your lover whistle. Okay, no one says that. But if Brooklyn-based Thistle and Spire wants to use it as their tagline, we’re okay with it.
This lingerie brand has sizes up to 3X, as well as bras with bands up to 42 and cups to F and designs featuring snakes, roses, and flames. If you need us, we’ll be learning how to whistle.
