Below I share the best plus size tall clothing retailers and brands that make plus apparel for women in long lengths. The list is in alphabetical order. With each I share their size range and details on the company's shipping and return policies.

This article on the best plus size tall clothing retailers was originally published in 2014 but has been updated to feature those retailers still in business, the new retailers on the scene, and feedback when available.

Some tall looks available at Alloy Apparel

Alloy Apparel

Alloy Apparel is one of the few retailers from my original 2014 review of the best plus size tall retailers that is still in business offering trendy and wallet-friendly tall apparel. From suits to skirts, jumpsuits to jeans, Alloy has a pretty extensive range of apparel in tall and long length fits. However, Alloy Apparel is now only available up to a US size 20 (waist of 37″ and hip of 45″).

Alloy Apparel has extensive customer reviews which helps you figure out which styles may be best for you, and what size to purchase. Alloy Apparel offers free shipping on orders of $100+, returns within 30 days, and an interactive return site that provides mailing labels for a $6.95 fee.

Some tall pants available at Avenue

Avenue

Avenue carries tall fit pants in sizes 14-32. The inseam length of Avenue pants depends on the style; some were only 1″ longer than the standard length, others were 3″ longer. I saw inseams up to 34″ in length. Avenue offers tall styles ranging from casual knit pull-on pants to trousers appropriate for the office and dressier locations.

Avenue has a flat rate of $7.95 for shipping, but it's free if you spend $100+. Avenue uses Happy Returns, which makes it free to return to a Happy Returns location or $5.95 if you use their mailing label. Returns have a 90-day window.

Some looks available in tall fits from Eloquii

Eloquii

When I originally wrote this review of the best plus size long retailers, I included Eloquii, which just launched their Kady pant which came in three lengths. The Kady Pant now comes in three lengths as well as three fits, and an amazing range of colors and the occasional prints.

Eloquii has extended their pants and jeans collection and several styles are now also available in long lengths! Each style shares the inseam (usually 2″ longer than the standard length) and Eloquii apparel is available in sizes 12-28. Eloquii offers free standard shipping on orders $125+ and within 30 days offers free exchanges and $5 return labels.

eshakti review
Just an example of looks you can get from eShakti designed for your unique self

eShakti

Honestly, I would write an entire post about eShakti is the best destination for plus size tall apparel but I know folks like options. But really, eShakti is so great for beautiful fashion in sizes 0-36 available to order based on your height or your custom measurements. You can also customize most any piece with a different neckline, sleeves, and more. eShakti has only become more reliable with more extensive of apparel selection since I last updated this review plus they have a fit guarantee.

eShatki is known for dresses, but the retailer carries denim, pants, skirts, tops, and jumpsuits as well. Shipping starts at $9.95 and goes up depending on the cost of your order. Returns are super easy within 30 days with the shipping label included with your purchase.

Good American offers a few styles of their denim in long lengths (33″-35″ inseam dependant on style) and they are available up to size 24. Do note, I find the larger sizes and longer lengths seem to go out of stock faster than other sizes.

Good American is B-corp certified. Good American offers free shipping on orders $125+ and returns need to be made within 21 days. Good American works with Happy Returns ($2.99) and regular mail ($7.99).

Some tall options available at Lands' End

Lands’ End

When I originally wrote this article, Lands' End was a great destination for tall plus size fashion. Lands' End has an entire department of wardrobe basics, cute dresses, and swimwear in tall plus sizes. Now when you go to Lands' End, the only plus size tall options they have are swimwear. However, it's hard to find a long torso swimsuit, especially in plus sizes, and it's good to know Lands' End is still available for such items.

Lands' End offers their Misses collection up to size 18 and many pieces are available in tall sizing. Lands' End regularly has shipping and sale promotions; it's worth getting on their email list. Their standard shipping rate is free on orders $99+ and they offer free returns on items sent back within 90 days.

In June of 2020, Long Tall Sally said they'd be closing after over 40 years of catering to a taller clientele. Luckily, Long Tall Sally was bought by AK Retail Holdings a couple of months later and is still available online offering up to a US size 28 and up to 38″ inseam. If you desire larger-sized shoes, Long Tall Sally also offers footwear up to size 13.

Long Tall Sally continues to be the best of the plus size tall clothing retailers, offering jeans, outerwear, dresses, swimwear and more cut specifically for a tall figure. Delivery prices are determined at checkout and since this is a UK-based company, returns will be your responsibility to pay and send back.

OLD NAVY PLUS SIZE TALL
Some of the tall options available at Old Navy

Old Navy

When I originally wrote this post about plus size tall clothing retailers, I said Old Navy was a great destination because they had plus size tall in tops, dresses, bottoms, and activewear. Even though Old Navy increased their size range to 30, they reduced their plus size tall options. At the time of writing this, tall is only offered up to XXL in tops and 20 in bottoms, a handful of basic dresses, with every other apparel category only available in Misses sizing (all linked here).

Old Navy offers a $5 flat shipping fee and free shipping for members of their free program. Returns must be made within 30 days to an Old Navy store or online (returns at this time are free).

Some tall length options available at Canadian retailer Penningtons

Penningtons

Penningtons offers plus size apparel in sizes 14 to 32 and has a range of pants, leggings, and jeans available in tall fit with a longer inseam (it varies depending on style, but most are a 35″ inseam).

I hesitated to share Penningtons because it is a Canadian company and only ships to Canada, but I know there are many Wardrobe Oxygen readers who live in Canada and have been frustrated by how many US retailers have left their country or made shipping difficult or impossible. Penningtons offers an $8.95 flat rate for shipping, returns within 30 days which are free by mail or in-store.

  1. Allie,

    You said that Alloy size 20 has a waist size of 27. If only…. No I think it’s a lot bigger than that. Maybe 37?

  2. If you’re a company for plus size people, why are your models NOT plus size? I want to see how the outfits look on someone who’s plus size (20/22 & up).

    1. I fully agree, and every time I could find images on plus sized women, I used them in this post. It’s ridiculous that over half the female population of the United States wears plus sizes yet brands won’t make the effort to showcase their clothing on a relatable-sized model.

  3. Thanks so much for this post, Allie. I really appreciate you doing it. It’s such a sad picture, though. Even retailers who were doing tall/plus a few years ago aren’t anymore, or are doing less and less. As the range of our bodies gets larger, the range we’re offered in sizes gets smaller. It’s infuriating.

    That said, a couple of other places I can sometimes buy tall plus sized stuff:
    1. Eddie Bauer: carries Tall XXL in some items, which is about a size 18-20
    2. Chico’s: some size 4. (XXL/20) come in Tall
    3. The Gap: some styles go up to 20T
    4. Universal Standard: a few styles of pants and jeans come in long inseams

  4. J. Jill has some really nice plus and tall options, or did a few years ago. Just not inexpensive.

    Thank you for the list! This is great!

    1. I second the J Jill recommendation, although it’s best to be near a store, as they don’t offer free shipping or returns, and the sizing is hit or miss.

      Also, I recommend Victorias Secret “best-loved yoga pants” for tall women — there are multiple inseam options and they’re super comfortable. I wear them year-round as my basic black pants.

  5. Jessica London, via OneStopPlus! Not just tall plus pants but also tall plus entire suits, wool coats, etc. Sizes usually up to 26W and sometimes a bit higher. I’ve been pretty happy with them.

    Also seconding Lands End.

  6. Thank you so much Allie! You listed several retailers that I was not aware of. The picture is looking brighter.

    Chris

  7. Also remember that a good tailor is your best friend! For a lot of my slacks and pant suits the tailors at Nordstroms will let all of the length of the pants down, and then they add a little bit of ribbon or lace and use that to fasten the hem. I’m not sure how to explain it better but you can’t see the ribbon or lace and it makes pants without a lot of extra material in the hem work for me. My local tailor does this also. Occassionally it comes undone so maybe once a year I have to take them in but without this trick it would be so much harder to find slacks!

  8. Dear Allie, just want to thank you for your thoughtful responses to real women who have honest questions about fashion. You have a real gift and I love reading your blog. That’s all.

        1. When I did my original research I could only find up to 18 by going to their tall section, then I searched pants and then by size and got up to 20, but then searching specific pieces I could find 30. Gosh they need to better plot out their site, thanks so much for sharing this, I’ve updated the post 🙂
