Torrid, please make bigger bra sizes

Torrid: make bigger bra sizes please. Also make the bras comparable to Lane Bryant bras and I will buy them up.

Currently if you want a good bra and are larger than DDD, head over to Lane Bryant. Click on Cacique Intimates tab, select "view all bras", there is a special section for big cup girls, click "bra sizes f,g, & h". BUT wait for their bra sales. SALE IS EXACTLY THIS: I think the last time I bought bras from LB the sale was buy 1 get 1 50 % off. My personal fave is the Passion Lace Full coverage bra. I have tried their balconette, and did not like. Balconette bras I will never understand why you would want your breasts to spill out of the cup on purpose!

re: Torrid models NOT plus size?

Comment from customer on Torrid facebook page:

So I was on your website looking at your clothes and realized that NONE of your models look plus size! They have flat stomachs, thin arms, and small thighs. Ok, maybe their arms aren't as thin as a VS model, but they're thinner than most plus size women. They have on short shorts, no back fat, etc. I know we're all built differently being plus size, but c'mon! I'm looking at these women like why the hell are they on a plus size website?! I don't know many plus size women who can wear short shorts, at least comfortably. Just sayin'......


When all is said and done, the reason the Torrid models do not "look" plus size is because they are TALL.

I think what customers are meaning to say, when they make comments about the models NOT looking/being plus size is..."We want models that are our height".

According to a quick google search (because everything you read on the internet is TRUE) the average height for women in the U.S. is 5'3". So in conclusion what the Torrid customer are asking for is shorter Torrid models. This is never going to happen, because to be a model in the plus size industry you have you be at least 5'8".

I will leave you with pictures of Torrid models from 2007. These were pulled from my purchase history under my account.
