People are forever asking me where to find great plus size clothes. And as a woman who grew up in small town Aotearoa New Zealand I totally understand the struggle to find something that makes you look and feel fabulous, rather than a frumpy curtain crossed with a shapeless sack. I might be fat, but I love fashion! So, here you go: a directory of great places to shop for sizes 14+…
This is by no means a complete list – I’ll be adding to this as I discover great new places to buy plus size clothes in New Zealand and online, so make sure you check back regularly. If you come across another amazing plus size store you think I should check out, or you’re a designer who would like your brand listed here, let me know!

Have bought so many great dresses from Dolly & Dotty (not on the list). Great directory Meagan!
Thanks Gemma, I’ll add Dolly & Dotty on there! x
Hi Megan, sorry that should read “haven’t been able to find a supplier in NZ.”
Hi Megan … great website, thanks for all the hard work finding and listing these businesses. Bit cheeky, but was wondering if you were about to order anything from Old Navy, coz just need a 4XL Men’s Go-Dry Cool Tee, but just one and I’m little put off purchasing just one item for an order to NZ? Having been able to find a supplier in NZ. Thanks for your time, Paula
Nope, sorry Paula – no orders planned at this stage
Hey Megan, love your blog you’re awesome. if you can you should add my boutique…. http://www.teaandcocoboutique.com, we’ve only got a couple plus piece’s but are definitely getting more
Hi Teresa – I can only find one piece on your site over a 16 at the moment, but please do let me know when you’re stocking a full range of plus x
Thrive in martinborough are the business – fab range of fashion and sizes. Nice website too 🙂
Ooh, thanks Helen! I will add them to the list 🙂
Hi Meagan
I’m a size 20 and I’ve bought a few pieces from Kow Tow (in sizes L and XL), perhaps they’re not strictly plus size but many of their designs are extremely loose-fitting. Glad you like Hall, I’ve spent far too much money there!
PS – absolutely love your site. I hadn’t been here before but saw the article in the recent Sunday magazine am now all over it. You’re amazing, thanks for sharing all your great ideas and finds with the rest of us 🙂
Ooh, good to know, thanks Eve! I will have to try some of Kow Tow’s pieces on 🙂 And thanks, welcome to my blog! xM
I’ve recently discovered Kow Tow (www.kowtowclothing.com) – a lovely NZ label using fair trade organic cotton. They have gorgeous frocks and tops. Hall Clothing is also fab – they are online (www.hallnz.co.nz) and have a shop in Greytown 🙂
Hey Eve, thanks for sharing! I’ve just checked out Kow Tow and it looks like they don’t do plus sizes – according to their measurements they go up to a size 16? Is that right? Hall looks amazing – I hadn’t heard of them before! Am now in love with so many pieces, and will add them to the directory 😉 xM
Hey Meagan, you should include my label, Bombshell Vintage. We do reproduction dressea and suits in all sizes! BombshellVintage.com.au
Cheers
Kate
Awesome, thanks Kate, I’ll add you to the list! xo
There is a lovely new shop call Calypso at Greenwoods corner in Epsom specialising in plus size clothing. Go see Liz 🙂
Thanks Heather, I’ve added Calypso to the list! xo
Autograph should have an asterix as well. Just opened up in Hamilton not so long ago and I hear they are also opening in Taranaki 🙂
and Sylvia Park in Auckland 🙂
Noted, thanks ladies! xo
I have also bought amazing plus size stuff from US website http://chicstar.com/ worth adding too 🙂 Thanks for the great list 🙂
Thanks Heather, I’ll check them out! xo
