Plus-Size Women's Clothing Stores in the US - Industry Market Research Report

Plus-Size Women's Clothing Stores in the US
The Plus-Size Women's Clothing Stores industry has benefited from an expanding market and favorable economic conditions over the past five years. As the economy strengthened and per capita disposable income amplified, plus-size consumers had more to spend on clothing and discretionary purchases. The number of plus-size adults has steadily expanded, enabling retailers to capitalize on a largely untapped market. Swelling competition from online mass merchandisers and COVID-19-related economic slowdowns temporarily limited demand for plus-size women's clothing. Still, a robust post-pandemic recovery helped revenue expand at a CAGR of 2.2% over the past five years to reach an estimated $12.7 billion in 2023. Revenue is forecast to inflate by 1.5% in 2023 alone as plus-size clothing becomes more mainstream.

Retailers in this industry specialize in plus-size women’s clothing, which is clothing proportioned specifically for larger women. Typically, sizes 14 and up are considered to be in the plus-size category; however, not all brands and retailers follow this convention. The industry does not include plus-size clothing sales from stores with multiple departments.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
