In the last 10 years, the Depop app has become an epicenter for secondhand and vintage shopping. Much like thrifting IRL, finding shops that are size inclusive can be challenging. There are tools within the app that allow users to refine their searches by price, color, and size. We recommend starting there. Even with these tools, finding a seller that fits your style can take some time. Lucky you–we’ve done the research and found seven sellers with amazing pieces looking for a home…maybe your home?
Zoe has been selling items online since 2014 and sources most of her inventory from the Goodwill “Bins” before they can be sent to a landfill. She describes her inventory as “a little bit of everything between vintage, retro and modern.”
Dejanir finds most of her inventory at her local Goodwill. Her inventory is a mix of vintage and y2k items from size small to 3x.
I have a mix of items that can fit a variety of styles from trendy to sporty, I have something for everyone.
Yana and Rebekka are best friends based in the UK bringing vintage pieces to plus size women. With their shop, they hope to eliminate the need for fast fashion consumption. “We think it is important to be able to find clothes that are ethical and sustainable, in sizes often not sold in many stores.”
Jess grew up in the ‘90s wearing bright colors and admiring the creations of fashion designers like Michael Simon. Her inventory is made up of fun, patterned pieces of the same sort. For Jess, body positivity and inclusivity is at the core of her shop’s mission. She handpicks and sources clothing for all sizes and gender identities.
Abbie started selling on Depop in 2020. Her main goal is to sell clothes exclusively in sizes 14 and up. “I want to provide interesting pieces for the liberated fat babes who find the word ‘flattering’ to be a limiting suggestion meant to be ignored.”
