Whether you are a larger woman or shop for one, it can be very difficult to find plus size clothing that fits, looks good and fits your budget. Plus size swimwear or plus size lingerie are particularly difficult to find. While specialty stores exist that do carry full lines of plus sized clothing, they often charge very high prices.

One option to save time and money is to be properly fitted in a brick and board store for that plus size dress, bra, swimsuit or whatever you need and get an idea of what your wear in several different brands and keep a list of the sizes. Lingerie has so much variation that fitting is tricky no matter what size you are. Every woman should at the least have a professional bra fitting, and refit for other brands.

You should buy swmisuits in person so that you can put them on and make sure that they fit properly. If you don't need the swimsuit right away, you can save a lot of money when you buy it. Get all of the information from the store and then find a plus size clothing shop on the internet. Doing some comparison shopping can let you save 50% or more on the swimsuit that you're buying.

If you are one of those lucky women who weighs the same from year to year, you may be able to save bunches of money if you buy that swimsuit or any season-specific clothing when it being cleared out for the next season. Of course, if being in the latest style is important this won't work, but if not you may be able to make your best deal.

Another option is one some online plus size clothing stores offer that you will never see in a physical store. Someone I knew went to the website of a famous maker of plus size clothing and found amazing deals to order one or more dresses sight unseen for a tiny fraction of the normal price. You gave a size, they choose style and color. Often she got three very nice dresses for the usual price of one. Of course, you want a store with a good return policy unless you are very brave.

Many sellers offer great deals in their paper catalogs, so they are a good place to look for bargains. Comb catalogs, call toll free numbers, and search the web for current specials and offers. Another way to save on your wardrobe is to find a "size buddy" who wears the same size as you, and to trade clothing back and forth. This will effectively double your wardrobe without doubling your expense. Finding a friend with similar fashion tastes can really pay off.

In order to ensure a good fit when you are purchasing plus sized clothing, it is a good idea to be measured in a store to find your proper size. Always shop with a frugal friend to help you find great bargains and peruse specialty catalogs for new sales.
