8 Best Plus-Size Pieces to Add to Your Wardrobe, Now

At Verishop, we’re proud to be the home of independent and loved brands — but as a company co-founded and led by a woman, there’s a special place in our hearts for all the women entrepreneurs we get to work with. Our Female Founder Shop is the digital manifestation of that honor: it’s curated for discovery 24/7, 365 days a year. Not just during Women’s History Month.

We’re excited highlight one brand within the collection in celebration the women who paved the way and those who create new paths forward. Meet Pari Passu, a first-of-its-kind contemporary design house dedicated to creating beautiful clothing for women sizes 12 and above. By rethinking sizing and focusing instead on a woman's shape, the fashion brand is raising the bar to bring curvy women better-fitting, high-quality clothes meant to last. There’s a story behind each piece, too — which is why we asked Shanna Goldstone, founder of Pari Passu, to share the inspiration behind some of the best plus-size pieces within the collection.

Lucie Tunic

“This is the very first piece we created, and it’s been on the top of our favorites list ever since. This is the Pari Passu ideal of a ‘suit.’ The tunic pulls a simple pair of pants and button-down into a modern outfit made to be worn for an important presentation or meeting.”

Rosalyn Top

“Named for my mom, the Rosalyn Top has been reimagined in a bright optic print for spring. Perfect with our Dalita Denim Trousers or to really amp up the look, go print on print and wear it with the Adrian Wrap Skirt.”

Adrian Wrap Skirt

“This is the easiest summer skirt! Throw it on with a t-shirt or crisp, white button-down shirt and you’re done. To make it a statement look, mix the print with the Rosalyn top.”

Dalita Denim Trouser

“Designed and named for my stylish friend, the Dalita is all about creating length. This high-waisted trouser jean is deceptively comfortable and perfect for any woman who’s looking for denim that combines sophistication with ease of wear.”

Oli Denim Shirtdress

“Any woman in a time crunch every morning will appreciate this. The Oli Denim Shirtdress is the ‘I have 10 minutes to get out the door’ solution for almost any situation. Comfortable and chic, this dress is as great with sneakers as it is with heels.”

White Oxford Button Down

"This white button-down Oxford shirt is my ultimate uniform piece. I literally wear one almost every day! I size up when I wear it with jeans for a more relaxed, 'borrowed from my husband' look, and go to my regular size when I wear it underneath a sweater or a jacket."

Merit Pant

“The Merit Pant is my go-to, always right, favorite piece. It’s literally the perfect black pant! With a slim leg and slightly cropped length, this is the pant I reach for constantly when I need to look chic and pulled together. It’s as perfect with flats as it is with a heel and the tropical-weight wool has just a touch of stretch to make them incredibly comfortable.”

Tammy Denim Shirt

“Another workhorse in my wardrobe is the Tammy Denim Shirt. Like the white Oxford, this piece is such a no-brainer, it goes with anything. My favorite pairing is with a pair of jeans for a full-on Canadian Tuxedo moment.”
