Threadless Carries Plus Sizes, Holds Contests

I’ve been following Threadless for some time, but it’s taken me this long to realize that they were very plus-friendly! What have I been missing?! (See above for your answer.) Threadless tees are available for women up to size 2XL on the site, and what’s even better is that you’re not getting gouged on the price: tops with fun and whimsical designs start at $9 (this one pictured is $18).
If you happen to be into more than just buying, you can certainly try out The Bestee Program by entering your own designs. Not only will you be adding your individual style to a plus-friendly site, but you’ll be eligible to win the rather impressive $20,000 Designer of the Year Award. Since they also honor “bloggers, sloganeers, and gallery photographers” on Threadless, you just might find a place to contribute! Other awards start at $1,000, so check out The Bestees… and then get shopping.

I adore threadless shirts – this reminds me that it’s been a while since I’ve ordered something from them!
One of the things that I really liked besides the tees were the “art prints.” They are soooo cool, and there’s so much to buy over there, it’s crazy! It sounds like we both need to do some shopping.
Their girly XXL is most certainly NOT plus size! I wear Gap XL and girly XXL fit at least two sizes smaller! I am NOT plus size, yet felt like I was wearing a size S over my DDD chest and normally XL shoulders!
Thanks for the tip, Lisa. I bought my first Threadless shirt today but first googled to see what sizing was like, and your comment helped. Decided to get a men’s XL. Hope it will still look good!
