Plus-size women (80–260 jin / 40–130 kg) have long been underserved by mainstream lingerie: underwires dig in, straps slip, coverage falls short. This guide covers size charts, silhouettes and fabrics to help you stock right.
Why plus-size bras are hard to buy
Mainstream brands cap sizes low and are built on slim fits, so plus-size shoppers face pressure, gaping cups and red marks. Comfort and support are the core needs.
Size chart (weight → suggestion)
| Weight | Common suggestion | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 80–120 jin | L–XL / B–C cup | Wirefree daily is fine |
| 120–160 jin | 2XL–3XL / C–D cup | Wide straps for support |
| 160–220 jin | 4XL–5XL / D–E cup | Camisole / front-clasp friendlier |
| 220–260 jin | 6XL+ / E+ cup | Needs plus-size dedicated pattern |
Which silhouette
- Wirefree camisole: no pressure, comfortable for daily & sleep.
- Wide strap + racerback: better support for sport & outerwear.
- Front-clasp: easy on/off, great for moms & mature wearers.
- Pretty-back / U-back: looks good worn in or out.
- Shaping / tummy-control: postpartum & shaping — see our shapewear.
Fabric tips
Ice-silk, ribbed and seamless fabrics breathe and rebound; cotton crotch is healthier. Avoid cheap spandex that curls or loses shape.
Overseas plus-size demand
The plus-size market in the US/EU is growing fast, with "body-positive" as the mainstream narrative; plus-size is a high-conversion, high-margin category for DTC. See our Plus-Size collection.
