YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Fashion These are the best and worst online retailers for size inclusivity By You Magazine - October 6, 2020 While strides have certainly been made by several mainstream and independent brands in recent years when it comes to size inclusivity and plus size fashion, there’s no denying there’s still a long way to go. Getty Images When it comes to plus size clothing, it turns out certain retailers are far more inclusive than others. Flawless.org analysed 36 online retailers to see who comes out tops when it comes to their plus size clothing offering – and some of the results are surprising. The results were obtained by looking at both the range of sizing on offer by each brand as well as what percentage of their total online clothing offering was available in ‘plus sizes’ (a rather undefined term, but in this case ‘plus size’ was consider as size 16 and up). Coming in at the top spot was, unsurprisingly, Simply Be. First and foremost a plus-size clothing brand, we were happy to see that they walk the walk, with a total of 3,578 plus-sized items available to buy out of a total 4,422 – that’s 80.9 per cent of their online products. With sizes ranging from 16-34, their plus-size fashion offering is impressive. Getty Images In second place was FatFace – with clothing ranging up to a size 22, 73.7 per cent of their clothing available online was available in plus sizes. Slightly more surprisingly, H&M also came out near the top of the list – with sizing from XL-4XL, over half (54 per cent) of H&M’s clothing is plus size. As for who is the least size inclusive? At the very bottom of the list is Hot Topic, with an unfortunate 0.7 per cent of their total womenswear items available in plus sizes. Pull & Bear and Topshop also came out with less than desirable results, with 1.7 per cent and 3.3 per cent plus size fashion available respectively. Getty Images It’s worth noting that, while this is certainly not an exhaustive list and doesn’t take into consideration factors such as size representation in their advertising and online model shots, for example, it gives a snapshot of where some of the most popular UK high street brands are at in terms of their size inclusivity – or in some cases, exclusivity. The full ranking of the 36 brands analysed is as follows: Hot Topic – 0.7 per cent Pull & Bear – 1.7 per cent Topshop – 3.3 per cent Lasula – 3.6 per cent Pink Boutique – 4.1 per cent New Look – 4.9 per cent Femme Luxe – 5.1 per cent River Island – 5.1 per cent Boohoo – 5.2 per cent Missguided – 5.6 per cent Monki – 5.9 per cent I Saw It First – 6.4 per cent Komodo – 6.6 per cent Chi Chi London – 7.1 per cent Oh Polly – 7.3 per cent Zara – 7.6 per cent Motel Rocks – 7.6 per cent Wearth London – 7.7 per cent Pretty Little Thing – 8 per cent Stradivarius – 8.7 per cent ASOS Curve – 9.3 per cent Nasty Gal – 10 per cent Vero Moda – 11.3 per cent In The Style – 24.9 per cent Gap – 26.9 per cent Never Fully Dressed – 29.3 per cent Mango – 36.6 per cent Urban Outfitters – 37.1 per cent Shein – 37.2 per cent People Tree – 40.5 per cent Miss Selfridge – 47.7 per cent H&M – 54 per cent Nobody’s Child – 63.9 per cent We Are Thought – 73.2 per cent FatFace – 73.7 per cent Simply Be – 80.9 per cent RELATED ARTICLESMORE FROM AUTHOR Rochelle Humes has launched a gorgeous new edit with Next Shop the YOU Magazine Instagram YOU picks the best new-in buys from M& S Popular in Fashion Laura Jackson has teamed up with Next for the chicest knitwear January 22, 2020 Holly Willoughby’ s birthday dress is another Zara bargain February 10, 2020 The Instagram-famous & Other Stories wool blazer is back in stock August 31, 2022 Lorraine just wore Emma Willis’ Next collection from head to toe March 17, 2020 The prettiest spring dresses under £100 March 1, 2022 Everyone is buying Holly’ s gorgeous gingham Oasis dress May 14, 2020 13 bargain dresses to buy in ASOS’ s extra 20 per cent June 10, 2020 This £20 H& M dress is set to be the social media June 26, 2020 Stacey Solomon x Primark is back for a third collection with July 20, 2020 Searches for this perfect heatwave summer top style are up 5000% August 10, 2020 Popular CategoriesFood2704Life2496Fashion2240Beauty1738Celebrity1261Interiors684 Sign up for YOUMail Thanks for subscribing Please check your email to confirm (If you don't see the email, check the spam box) Fashion Beauty Celebrity Life Food Privacy & Cookies T&C Copyright 2022 - YOU Magazine.
