    (Firt off...Hello! I am new! I'm planning a July wedding in Minnesota, but I live in Georgia. I have a 5 month old daughter and a fabulous fiance!)

    I HATE lingerie shopping. I'm looking for a company that makes cute plus sized lingerie- that wont dig into my baby fat!

    I'm a size 16.

    I'm specifically looking for garter belts or pin-up style stuff.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!

    Bravissimo I love and they ship over NO problems, but they only go up to 40 and remember they are UK so a size (maybe 2) smaller then our sizes.

    Thanks ladies!

    TPHoliday- So glad you reminded me they are a UK size...that could have been bad!

    First - Welcome!

    Second - I'm an 18 and trying to loose my baby fat as well (ok, my baby is 13, but still, it sounds good) and I am not a huge fan of the back fat rolls or anything like that.

    Third - I HATE shopping for lingerie.

    Fourth - Fredrick's - that is all I have to say! I wanted something sexy/slutty for under my dress and the things they had at the bridal store were so NOT what I was looking for and while Lane Bryant is great and all, I didn't want it to look like I was wearing a 1st centry contraption.  I went to Fredrick's and the girl was awesome - laced me up, pulled me tight and even let my BFF take my picture (fyi, the FI loves that pic).  They have so many great things in 16/18 that you would be able to find something I'm sure.  I know that is where I will be heading and if I don't get to the store, I'll hit them up on line because they are really great about returns.

    Good luck!

    Torrid has some really cute lingerie and they are a plus size store. Fredrick's definitely have very cute stuff but their sizing is just odd to me. Lane Bryant sometimes have cute stuff but you just have to watch when it comes on. Avenue has cuter stuff online then they do in the store.

    Torrid has some cute pin-up style stuff. Fredericks is also a fun one. If you want online, there is a site called 3wishes.com that does regular and plus size. They ship quickly too, and their shipping is always free.

    Torrid has cute lingerie (they have the same styles as Hot Topic in larger sizes) but their sizing is really weird to me. Lane Bryant is good as is Fredericks of Hollywood.
