Ulla Popken
Founded in Germany during the 1800s, Ulla Popken didn't start out making plus-size clothing. It wasn't until the 1960s that they started a maternity line after the creator's wife became pregnant.
During this time, he witnessed an employee packing up over 15 maternity items and wondered why the customer needed so many.
After asking, he found out she wasn't pregnant, and the maternity clothes just fit her best and most comfortably. This sparked the idea for creating a fashion line for plus-size women to enjoy, too.
Now, each of the items in this line is designed with style, comfort, fit and quality in mind.
There are tons of plus-size clothing stores popping up around the world. If you want to dress your beautiful body in clothes that make you feel amazing, check out this list or one of these fantastic, featured shops.
