Plus Size Teddy

While teddies complement most body types, they are especially flattering for plus size women. The form-fitting design of this one-piece lingerie style smooths and accentuates the natural curves of plus size women in the sexiest way possible. Also, many curvier women feel uncomfortable putting their whole body on display in more revealing lingerie and want to look and feel sexy without baring it all. Teddies offer the perfect compromise, as many teddy styles completely conceal your midsection with opaque material while still showing off your waist and cleavage with a snug fit.

Of course, not all teddies are designed with plus size women in mind. In fact, the style of many teddies are better suited for slimmer women and are unable to accommodate the curves and support needs of plus size women. If you’re a plus size woman, that doesn’t mean you should give up on finding a teddy that’s flattering for your figure. The teddies in this plus size lingerie collection are equipped with support features that provide adequate security for large busts and are designed in styles that flatter the curvy frames of plus size women.

Teddy Lingerie Support

Many plus size women are hesitant to shop for one piece lingerie because they’re worried that these styles won’t provide them with the support they need to feel comfortable and confident in the bedroom. Women with naturally curvier figures tend to need more support for their bust. Unfortunately, many stylish teddies on the lingerie market don’t include any added support features.

The lack of support offered by the majority of mainstream teddy styles drives plus size women toward alternative styles—like a bra and panty sets—that provide trustworthy levels of support and security for their bust. While bra and panty sets can be a valid, sexy choice, plus size women should not feel like their lingerie choices are restricted just because of the size of their breasts.

Multiple teddy styles in this collection feature extra support features beyond the flimsy single layer of fabric standard for most teddies. Some of the most notable of these support features include real bra cups, hook-and-eye closures, underwire, and adjustable straps. All of these additions are woven seamlessly into the design of the teddy so that they can flatter and support you without detracting from the sexy style of your lingerie look.

How to Buy and Wear Your Plus Size Teddy

Teddies are a popular lingerie style that looks similar to and fits like a bodysuit. What sets teddies apart from many other lingerie styles is the fact that they create a complete look with only one piece. Teddies are also very stylish; they are virtually bodysuits—which are currently topping the trend charts for everyday fashion—with a sexy, scandalous twist.

While teddies are sexy no matter what size you wear, this lingerie style is an especially popular choice among plus size women. Because teddies are constructed like a bodysuit, they fit snugly around your bust and midsection. For plus size women, this design hugs your curves and accentuates them in the sexiest way possible. If you want to take advantage of this simple, sexy lingerie style, there are a few things you should consider while searching for a plus size teddy before you make your purchase in order to ensure that you end up with a teddy that truly fits and flatters your unique figure.

1. Decide How Much to Show

Teddies vary significantly in terms of the amount of coverage they provide. You get to decide how much skin you want to show depending on the style of teddy you buy. This reality makes teddies one of the more versatile lingerie styles; you don’t have as much freedom to choose how much skin you want to show in a bra and panty set, for example.

Some teddies are made from semi-transparent materials, like lace or mesh, while others are crafted from solid fabric. If even a fully opaque teddy doesn’t provide as much coverage as you want, you don’t have to wear the teddy by itself. While one of the benefits of teddies for many women is that they are complete lingerie set on their own, you can add additional lingerie pieces to create a less revealing look that is still very sexy.

2. Never Sacrifice Teddies Support

It doesn’t matter how sexy that unlined eyelash lace teddy looks on a model in a magazine spread. If it doesn’t offer enough support for your body, a teddy will not look flattering once you put it on no matter how attractive it is on someone else or hanging in the window of your favorite store. The only way a teddy like this—one with zero support—will flatter your figure is if you have a cup size of A or B. For most plus size women, this is not the case.

If your bust is a C cup or above, it’s important to prioritize support in any lingerie you buy. Strong support is especially vital for teddies. Because this lingerie-style consists of only one piece and is fully form-fitting, it has the potential to make your body look lumpy, unbalanced, or shapeless if it does not offer you the support you need. The tight fit of teddies allows the lingerie to hug and accentuate your curves, which is a major part of what makes this lingerie-style so sexy for plus size women. However, most plus size women need support and stability that some teddies simply don’t provide. That doesn’t mean that you should abandon all hope of rocking a teddy. It just means you need to make sure you choose a teddy—preferably one with real cups and underwire or at least an under-bust band—that provides you with the support you need to look and feel comfortable and confident.

3. Reference Your Teddy Lingerie Style

Wearing lingerie is just like wearing any other outfit, except you probably won’t go out in public in your teddy and it will likely only be seen by you and your partner(s). However, you should still maintain the same standards you use to decide which clothing pieces to buy when you shop for a teddy. Don’t think that you have to completely change your fashion sense just because you’re shopping for lingerie instead of a new shirt.

In fact, using your own established personal style as a guideline when searching for a teddy to buy can help you find a style that makes you feel confident and at ease. There’s nothing wrong with stepping out of your comfort zone, but you probably won’t feel as sexy as possible in a teddy that is completely out of line with your normal style. Take into account.

4. Don’t Underestimate Detailing when buying Plus Size Teddies

Detailing is the most interesting part of most teddies. Teddies are simple pieces, which means that many of them look almost exactly the same; choosing one with unique accents and detailing is a great way to set your teddy apart from other similar styles.

It’s easy to find teddies with sexy detailing that adds intrigue to the piece. Strappy styles, cutouts, bow adornments, lace trim, and other subtle details enhance the look of a teddy without looking too overcrowded. Accessories like garters, chokers, and stockings also complement your teddy to create a complete, sexy look. Avoid teddies that include too many details, however; these styles tend to steal attention away from your body, which is never the goal with lingerie.

5. Consider Teddy Materials

Unlike many other lingerie styles that are confined to just a few fabrics, teddies come in many different materials. Lace, silk, fishnet, leather, and latex are all popular materials for teddies. The type of teddy you choose just depends on your preferences and what kind of look you want to show off.

Lace teddies tend to be semi-transparent; they create an intriguing combination of scandalous and delicate. Silk teddies are soft to the touch, comfortable, and won’t irritate your skin or your partner’s skin. These teddies automatically add femininity to your look. Fishnet, leather, and latex materials make teddies appear edgier and more scandalous. Keep in mind that fishnet teddies show more bare skin than most leather or latex styles. If you want to step out of the box with a bold look, try a teddy made from one of these materials.
