I’m looking to start a plus size clothing store and I’m having a hard time trying to find information on where to find plus size wholesalers or conventions in the Chicago area where I can buy from the wholesaler.
Can anybody help me out with this situation?

I have no help but I do have a request. PLEASE carry petite sizes!! I have the hardest time finding size 16 clothes for short people.

You might try checking out eBay for wholesale lots and from there maybe you can ask you question to those dealers…

Google the MAGIC convention – it features big and tall for men and plus sizes for women each year.
Also, visit – it’s the home of the new plus size fashion and style magazine called Bombshell that is coming out soon!

There a a few fantastic websites that have great info on plus size designers however it will leave you scouting the corners of the earth to find some of the better ones.
In my experience many of them are online!
Do some serious searching, and if you come across a site whose clothing you like… just contact them, most online retailers are open to chatting about wholesale options.
Here is a list I recommend to start you off!
Plus Model Mag – check out their Fashion Directory
Curvety – UK online store
Full Figure Plus – Blog
Lil’ Mama – Australian online store
Missphit – US online store
Make sure you look at the plus size blogs out there too!
If you want to open a store don’t be afraid to contact international designers, who on most occasions be keen to be stocked by someone like yourself.
Also take a look at Infomat which lists all the major fashion shows/buying events in the US, UK and Europe.

Good Luck!!!!!!
wholesale clothes is good if it’s clothes is original & have a great quality.
Thank you so much
I am very delighted to reading after this blog. It has great contents which is informative and useful same time. I am sure all people must impress with it.
I knew I was right. My friend and I placed a bet about which webpage was better. I thought your site was better written, but she believed this post on women shapewear was better. We gathered five family memebers who had not seen either site before to scan them both once through. Majority chose your blog. Keep up the good work.
Yeah it’s a good news for Chicago,
Do some serious searching, and if you come across a site whose clothing you like… just contact them, most online retailers are open to chatting about wholesale options.
They’ve got a pretty nice selection of plus sized clothing at the wholesaler in my source. Also, all of the plus sized clothes they have picked out are quite flattering to the larger figure. Good luck with opening your store!
