Let me apologize. I have an entire queue of blog posts that I owe y’all. I am going to use the change in weather and the slow down in pace in my travel schedule to get some of those up for you! First up: from indie brand, Impish Lee! I remember when I first heard about Impish Lee, I was struck by the concept. They create loungewear in sizes 00-30 and bras sizes 28A-44JJ. The game-changer is that all the lingerie is custom-made so you can select the lining, style, fabric and finishes. Finding the right fit especially in plus size lingerie is a challenge – takes the guessing game out of it while also allowing you to be the designer.
My first time wearing Impish Lee was not a custom plus size option; it was a piece from their blogger collaboration collection with Fat Girl Flow. collection first debuted in February 2018 (told y’all I was late!) and featured 16 customizable options including everything from bralettes and robes to garters and rompers. The collection marked the first lingerie collaboration with a blogger over a size 24.
I interviewed Corissa Enneking of and sister duo Kali and Noelle Lee Ventresca of Impish Lee for They both recognized the importance of this collection. Corissa told me, “Every plus-size body is unique and beautiful, and we all carry our weight differently. Weâre not all hourglasses, and a lot of my plus-size friends canât buy lingerie sets because theyâre different sizes on top and bottom.  Impish Lee celebrates all bodies, and doesnât have this preconceived notion about what plus-size bodies should look like. They give you specific details on how to measure and all of their pieces are literally made for your body, and you can absolutely tell when you put them on.â
I tried out the from the Fat Girl Flow x Impish Lee collection. The multi-colored velvet makes for a dreamy fit. The piece features lined cups, adjustable straps, and roll stitching. Like everything in the collection, you can change the colors. Since I missed out on publishing this sooner, it’s pretty appropriate again for Fall!
I gave my measurements to Impish Lee for sizing. I had to provide five to get that perfect fit. Once I put it on, I really couldn’t believe how well it fit for a bralette. I felt a surprising amount of support in the back. For plus size babes who are weary of bralettes, Impish Lee is a way to feel more secure. Rather than arbitrary 1X, 2X, 3X sizing, you provide your particular measurements.
I have a lot of respect for Fat Girl Flow and Impish Lee. I found this collection to be so significant. An indie design and a size 24+ blogger making lingerie is a big deal! Although I didn’t design my own custom plus size lingerie, I feel more confident now that I could. If you’re looking to support an ethical, woman-owned business and you want some cute ass lingerie then definitely check out Impish Lee for all of your custom plus size lingerie needs!
