Eleven Spanish Brands For Plus Size Women by Christa Cripwell

Eleven Spanish Brands For Plus Size Women by Christa Cripwell

As fashion brands are (finally) beginning to genuinely incorporate plus-size sections in their collections, cutting-edge clothing is much more accessible for plus-size women. This watershed moment in fashion history has created an exciting and revolutionary time in which women can rock their curves in their chosen style, as opposed to one that was chosen for them due to limited plus-size options. Despite this change, shopping for plus-size clothing can still feel daunting, particularly when you are travelling and unfamiliar with the lay of the retail land. Well, when it comes to Spain, VOLUP2 has done the work for you.

Enjoy!

 

The first on our list is the affordable luxury clothing brand, Adolfo Dominguez. The Spanish fashion designer Dominguez took over his father’s boutique and established his brand in Madrid following work on his own designs. His brand has broken the border barriers; while having shops all over Spain, it also has an expansive global network in over 20 countries.

Dominguez added the AD+ line for curvy women, with sizes ranging from 44-56. It can be found at C. de Serrano in Madrid.
