Where To Buy Size-Inclusive Vintage Clothing On Etsy

In my early twenties, I went through a very serious vintage clothing phase, so much so that I didn’t consider an outfit good or cool unless one piece of it was vintage. I felt like if what I wore was new or mass produced then it meant I wasn’t creative and therefore didn’t have good style. This sentiment is of course dumb and not true, and I have since ceased caring about wearing vintage clothes just to feel “cool”. That said, vintage IS still a big part of my life because it feels good buying second hand and I do like my clothes to have a little history. The twist is since I am no longer a size 2, buying vintage clothes can be quite difficult. Gone are the days when I could walk into any vintage store and find quaint little dresses and tiny T-shirts in my size. In fact, this feels true for even regular retail stores. I recently walked into an Aritzia (big mistake unless you want to hurt your own feelings) and found that they pretty much only carry up to a size 8 in-store. I digress but the point remains, buying vintage clothes when you are mid or plus-size is challenging. It can make you want to give up trying completely which is why we at EHD wanted to do some research and find the best plus-size vintage shops from our favorite online vintage retailer. So if you’ve been looking for some vintage shops with inclusive sizing, this post is for you. Let’s get into it.

The Curvy Elle

You’ll find: Feminine dresses and skirts, collared blouses, 80s vintage clothing.
Size Range: 12-22

1. Vintage Red & White Polka Dot Midi Skirt (Size L 12/14): Is there anything sweeter than a red midi skirt with little white polka dots? I love how the model styled it with a blouse with that cute scallop collar detail.
2. Vintage Navy Floral White Collar Surplice Dress (Size 12): This chiffon pattern sailor dress is adorable.
3 . Vintage Fuchsia Chiffon Mini Trapeze Dress (Size 22W): This fuchsia dress has cute little prince shoulder sleeves that I am obsessed with.

2. Vintage Levi’s 550 Jeans, 35.5”: If you like more baggy/balloon-shaped pants, these are it.
3. Vintage Levi’s 501 Jeans, 35.5”: Levi’s 501 jeans are gods gift to earth. I love the color of these and am tempted to snag them for myself if I am being honest. 🙂

3. Vintage Polka Dot Dress Size 20/22: This polka dot dress would be really cute styled with chunky loafers or even a cowboy boot!
