Check Your Closet
So, before you go shopping for your plus size lingerie, take a look in your closet. What's your favourite kind of shirt? Do you prefer t-shirts or shirts with high necklines? If you do, you can wear full cup bras or moulded cup bras. Moulded bras often work well under t-shirts whilst full cup bras can be worn with high neck tops. Do you like scoop neck, cowl neck, or moderately low cut tops? If so, you can wear balcony or balconette bras. Do you like low cut tops? If so, take a look at plunge bras-they look great under low cut tops.
This isn't to say that you should not have a good mix of plus size lingerie items. However, if you tend to wear similar styles, you will likely be most comfortable in a certain type of bra. No matter what you will want at least one full cup bra or moulded cup bra for t-shirts and the like, and you will want at least one balcony or plunge bra for 'going out' outfits.
The same method works for panties as well. Do you favour tight skirts and pants? If so, you might want to invest in some thongs. Otherwise, you can wear briefs or shorts.
The Bra Fitter
Before you go shopping for plus size lingerie, you want to make sure that you see a professional bra fitter. A professional bra fitter will evaluate your current bra and tell you whether you are wearing the correct size or not. If you have been fitted regularly, at least once a year, there's a good chance that you will be wearing the right size. However, if you have never been fitted before or it has been years since your last fitting, you might not be wearing the right size. If not, she'll give you a few bras to try on and evaluate them in order to find the one that fits best.
By taking some time to evaluate your own clothing before you head out to go shopping for plus size lingerie, you can save yourself some time.
