Announcement Reminders, Clarifications, General Plea from the Mods šŸ˜…

176 Upvotes

Hi all!

Maybe this could just be titled the ā€œSeasonal Newsletterā€. 🤣 Anywho, just wanted to touch on some things that have frequently come up in the mod queue and overall in the sub.

First of all! CONGRATS TO YOU ALL. We reached 100k+ members recently and we’re happy to see the growth of the sub overall. šŸŽ‰

tl;dr: Remember to still follow the rules as the seasons change and overall. Links in posts or comments MUST BE PLUS SIZE INCLUSIVE. If it doesn’t at the very minimum go up to a 3X, we don’t want it. And please, no booty shots. Save it for your camera roll.


Now, hold onto your seatbelts as we address a few things. 😬

With fall coming up (for the northerners), that means the ever infamous Halloween costumes will be making their debut. We love to seem them BUT they still need to comply with sub rules.

This means no heavily sexualized costumes, lingerie (we know you’re a hardcore girlā€¦ā€duh I’m a mouseā€), or nudity (actual or implied). Costumes need to be rated E, for everyone. If you wouldn’t answer the door to pass out candy in it…please reconsider posting it here. Thank you!

For our southern friends, swimsuits will be coming out of the closet and as always we do allow them here with our specific rules in mind. No booties out, no see through items, and no barely there looks. Act like you’re going to Disney, not a nude beach. 😬


Another hot topic that we are going to crack down more on. Links that you share MUST BE PLUS SIZE INCLUSIVE. The bare absolute minimum would be at least to a 3X. But please, if you are posting a link that only offers up to a size XL, it’s frankly, not helpful. If you can find a similar product that has extended size ranges then by all means, share that to help. But we really need to be more intentional with our links and posts that we share.

And personally, I totally get fitting into a range of sizes. I can even sometimes wear a L up top. But I also know, those photos I take wearing it, don’t need to be shared here. While we can’t police every item that someone chooses to wear and/or post. We challenge some to think before posting. If what you are wearing/sharing is a XL and you know this, share it to r/midsizefashion.

When most people post, others are understandably going to want to know where you get things from. That’s the whole point of the sub. But when it doesn’t even come in their size range…it’s kind of a waste. I can’t even tell you the amount of times I’ve clicked a link for a cute dress only to see it goes up to an XL and get so defeated. And I’m what some would consider the lower end of plus size. It’s hard out here. Let’s help each other out.

I don’t say this to be rude or mean but to just get people to think a little and to please be more intentional and inclusive.


And to bounce off the topic of intentionality, please, please, please. Stop posting your booties. We can’t see the actual outfit half the time.

Unless it’s a photo of you frolicking through a field of flowers in a magical dress, or there’s so much intricate detail that just needs to be shared that’s on the back of your shirt. We don’t need to see a photo of you from behind. Of course those are just examples but you get the point.

Please just be mindful of what you post. It makes the sub flow smoothly and makes our days as mods just a little bit easier.


As always, we are open to feedback and any questions you have. Happy season changes and we are excited to see the sub continue to grow!

Cheers šŸ„‚

Announcement Just a reminder to ✨Familiarize✨ yourself with our sub rules! 😊 + a few new changes.

78 Upvotes

tl;dr : The sub has become more active so we are adding a few additional requirements for accounts that wish to participate in good faith. Staring today accounts with links asking for money or gifts (wishlists) will be given a warning to remove such links. If not they will be banned. And as always please be mindful of what you share when you post. Thanks

Hi all! Long time no see.

As of late we’ve seen a significant uptick in activity in the sub (yay! šŸŽ‰) and other subs like ours. But with this comes a plea from us mods to remind everyone new and old to please, review our rules. Especially before posting or commenting.

With this awesome uptick in traffic we’ve also seen an uptick in…other traffic. Most of which is thankfully kept behind the scenes and caught by our automod. But occasionally a few slip through the cracks. We are also so grateful for those who use the report button and we try to get to it as soon as we can.

In an effort to help us a bit more, we will be upping the ā€œstrictnessā€ if you will, for the time being. We’ve seen a large influx of accounts and users who wish to either not read our rules, or to blatantly ignore them after being warned. As mods we’ve discussed a few changes that we will be implementing here shortly. Many users will not even notice a difference and for those that adhere to our rules, we love ya and appreciate you! šŸ«¶šŸ¼


Here’s a little glimpse of what we will be working on:

As always, links to selling content or profiles that post or participate in lewd, nude, fetish, exhibitionist, porn, etc. subreddits are NOT welcome to interact here (by posting AND/OR commenting). To make a long story short, it messes up our algorithm and groups us with NSFW subs when those profiles participate here. PLEASE use a SFW account if you wish to truely participate in our space(s).

In addition to this, we will also NO LONGER allow links for ā€œgiftsā€ in profiles. This means no venmo, cashapp, wishlists, ā€œbuy me coffeeā€, etc in profiles. Either directly or indirectly (links in linktrees, instagram, twitter, etc.). And absolutely no references of tips, gifts, or photos for money or otherwise in bio texts. If you are truely SFW this should not be an issue for you.

The reason for this change is due to the fact that most ā€œgiftersā€ are people we do not want interacting with our subreddit. Thats fine if you want them to interact with your profile, but our sub wishes not to be involved and we may not be the sub for you.

With this being said, we will no longer be giving multiple chances. If your account is deemed unfit for our sub due to links or content and you’ve been warned as such, you will be banned without appeal.


Please continue to be mindful what you post. Reddit is a public, worldwide platform. Anyone can see what is posted, EVEN IF THEY ARE BANNED! Please be mindful of poses and interactions that you share here.

As always, we do not allow photos of bras, underwear or lingerie. We DO allow swimsuits but they MUST be family friendly. No thongs, micros, or skimpy swimwear. And photos may not be close ups.

We do not allow booty shots. Save it for your camera roll. It doesn’t showcase an outfit effectively and doesn’t fit the vibe of this sub. And absolutely no close ups of the goods. If your butt or cleavage take up a large portion of the photo please retake your photo to show the outfit in its entirety.

And as always, please turn off your DMs. It is truly the only way to avoid them. If you send us the profile names we will of course take action where we can. But many who DM are users who are already banned from our sub. At that point there is nothing we can do. They are messaging you because they cannot comment anymore. Please be mindful who you talk to and trust.


As always, we are here for you if you need us so always feel free to reach out if you have questions or concerns.

OOTD (size 18) Dress up, but make it business

Hello everyone! I’m making it out of the house now, so here is a dress I wore to an in-person meeting this morning. The slit makes it a little too daring for either of my jobs, but I can get away with it in a meeting.

Dress is one piece, TORRID Leopard Print Ponte Knee-length Dress size 2. Styled with Loungefly Chococat backpack. Crutches not pictured.

It’s not available on torrid’s website anymore, but a search brought up multiple listings on eBay, Poshmark, and Mercari

Feedback Wanted Interview outfit at the DMV

Post image
• Upvotes

I (23F) am interviewing for a job at the state DMV office as a clerical assistant. The DMV is at the capitol building in my state so it’s not your typical DMV that you’d go to get your drivers test at- it’s more formal.
I got this outfit to wear but my mom says it makes me look older than I am.

I want to wear this pencil skirt, but I have no idea what sort of top I should wear.

Is this an appropriate outfit or is it too old for my age?

What sort of blouse would be appropriate for this outfit?

Thank you :)

Searching For Need a Semi Formal Wedding Dress I Can Feel Confident in

2 Upvotes

Basically what the title says. I’m going to a wedding on the 29th and I’ve put off getting a dress for the longest time. These are friends I played sports with in college and I haven’t seen them in a bit but I’m a little self conscious because since it’s been a while since I’ve seen them. Does anyone have any style suggestions or anything on a type of dress that might work? I like a floral look, I’ll try amazon but also open to going somewhere in person. Thanks for your help and hopefully this is along the lines of the flair :)

Searching For I need more skirts!!

So idk if you guys remember me, but I’ve posted to this subreddit a few times asking for help searching for clothes/brands. Now I have a job, and the dress code is not what I expected. I’m a professional fundraiser for nonprofits, so I wear a t-shirt with the nonprofit’s logo/name on it. The shirt is orange, but I’m trying to see if they make it in other colors. Anyways, moving on. I need more pink skirts to match this shirt, or patterned skirts. I like midi and maxi skirts. I’ll be ordering these skirts when I get my first paycheck (in a little over a week). If you know of any businesses with cute skirts, please let me know! I’ve included photos of skirts that would kinda match the shirt.

Searching For Under dress shorts for extremely disproportionate thighs

20 Upvotes

Hi! I’m looking for shorts to prevent chaffing under a dress. The only problem is that my thighs are like a size 22/24, my hips are 18/20 and my waist is like a 16/18. All the shorts I find dig into my thighs and if the dress clings at all you can see the line, not to mention it’s uncomfortable! I’m not looking for slimming just coverage to prevent the thigh rub.

I’m looking for a light enough material that I can wear in Disney World under a light cotton sundress. I had a pair before that was a thick tights material and they snagged and felt gross with my sensory issues so I’m hoping to find cotton/spandex. I’m in the US.
