According to the fashion industry, plus sizes start at size 14 in the US and half of American women wear clothing in sizes 14 and larger. However, being plus sized does not mean being unattractive. HerRoom.com offers a wide selection of plus size lingerie to flatter the fuller figure.

At HerRoom.com, the selection of full figure and plus size lingerie is extensive. Products available include several brands that specialize in the plus size market, as well as those who have traditionally offered average figure apparel and have added plus size lingerie to their lines. Bali, Barely There, Chantelle, Natori, Olga, Sassybax, Vanity Fair, Playtex, and Wacoal are among the favorites.

Some of the most popular plus size lingerie products available at HerRoom.com include the Spanx Power Panties with Tummy Control 004 -- a two time Undie Award Winner for Favorite Shapewear Piece. This garment can be worn in place of underwear and features mid-thigh legs that won't roll up and a soft waistband. Spanx Power Panties are for moderate control -- Gwyneth Paltrow wore two at the same time after her pregnancy.

Another favorite, the Wacoal Slimline Seamless Minimizer Bra 85154, also a two time Undie Award winner, was featured on Oprah. This bra is totally seamless, something hard to find in plus size lingerie, especially bras, and minimizes by compression for a smooth, youthful, rounded look.

With high quality women's lingerie products like these available, it's no surprise that the plus size lingerie market continues to grow despite a struggling economy.
