9 Plus Size Butch Clothing Brands You Should Know

by Gina Jones 2

When it comes to bodies, genders, and clothing, people require different things. Finding specific plus size stores for butch people, for instance, is a whole lot more complicated than just simply buying menswear. (Although purchasing menswear and altering it to your proportions may be a solution for some, depending on your sewing skills).

For thinner people, dressing butch or androgynously can be achieved with high street or fast fashion clothing easily enough. For fatter frames, there's more to consider — not just sizing issues, but the different shapes of plus size bodies and how that translates into butch clothing. Anyone who's struggled with gaping holes while wearing a shirt can attest to how difficult it is to find a plus size shirt for bigger breasts. Just imagine how much harder it must be to hide your boobs as a plus sized person.

Instead of scouring the internet to find appropriate stores that may have appropriate clothing, it's so much easier to browse a single list of everything you may need. Hopefully, this list will help you compile the ultimate butch wardrobe.
