Subcultural Plus Size Fashion and Survival Masterlist! PART 1
So as the usual disclaimer "you don't HAVE to dress punk to be punk." (Not just talking about punk btw) And that is completely true. (In the grand scheme, labels are confining and pointless but I find it a useful tool to quantify my general intrests so others know what I am more than likely about as a person when I feel a bit non-verbal. AlSLO SOMETIMES THINGS ARE JUST FUN AND THATS THE ONLY REASON YOU NEED, LET PEOPLE SPIKE THEIR HAIR WITH BEER AND STUD THEIR FACE. I'll include if stores have vegan alteratives for leather and other animal based products.
DIY is gonna covered later, but this is more intended for the newbs and those who can't make there own things easily for any reason.
After that, I plan on gathering tips from others and what I have done for myself/tried for my partner, and tips and tricks for long-term comfort in areas that involve alot of standing and walking normally, (especially gigs and multiday fests) and other comfort prep while still looking the part and feelin yourself.
THE LOOK:
Vests:
Pull the Plug Patches (Vegan friendly!)
Up to 5x In tons of colors! I rarely see those sizes especially in non blue, but pro tip: as a biker there some.... HUGE guys on bikes. If you go to a CycleGear-type store or biker swap meets you can usually find a 5-8x denim vests that if you use light blue, takes most color dyes well!
Officially licensed Heavy Metal patches! Death Metal, Thrash Metal, Black Metal, Doom Metal, and Power Metal patches to make your Battle Jac
Belts and other Accessories:
Punkaddict (lot of vegan options)
I admittedly wasn't sure if the were legit at first cause of the outdated site design lol, but they are actually above and beyond! They're one of the ONLY places that seems to carry studded and bondage belts for anything bigger than a 44" waist, which already is typically maxing it out, and usually only black leather, which leaves vegans out.
This site has a colorful variety of belts, alot of vegan options for them too. I've regularly seen 3x sizes for most options, and they rarely even have 5x belts, which I've NEVER seen. Im hung up on the belts, but there's a TON of other things you could probably find.
Love this store, good spot for random patches, records, band shirts, and jackets that are often rare elseware. Another draw this they have plus size section. Rotation will vary often, and often leans to more Rock/Psychobilly in plus sizes specifically. Sometimes clothing between 2x-4x and 5-6x but rarely.
Jawbreakerclothing (some vegan options)
Found them recently. Don't know too much about them yet. Pretty cool variety of types clothes of styles, and noticed they go up to at least 5x on some items.
Discover the latest alternative trends from Women's dresses, jumpsuits, hoodies, tops, leggings to Men's alternative fashion.
Crustpunks (mostly vegan options)
One of my Top 3 favorite stores! Has all the t-shirts you could think of, and often up to 3x for bands merch that often don't carry much larger than XL!
Killstar (seems as there are vegan options, unsure)
I personally haven't bought anything from this brand, but they seem to carry really cute and even skimpy goth-themed outfits up to 4X.
Our collection of women's plus size tops come in a range of exclusive dark designs available in sizes 3XL-4XL to complete your look.
Forest Ink (unsure of vegan leather options)
More gothic central clothing, but also carries up to 5x!
WE SHIP WORLDWIDE! Shop our exclusive selection of goth and grunge women's apparel. We design one of a kind pieces that will be come staples
THE MUSIC:
I'm adding some record shops I love that also sells clothes. These places as much as I love them can be hit or miss on plus+ sizing. They sometimes will carry those things so its worth checking out.
Dr. Strange Records, CA (vegan friendly)
Literally spent my childhood there and all my pennies I collected 🤣.
Amazing store, the owner is the coolest guy ever and practices what he preaches; 100% punk all day, recording studio underneath, rare punk, psychobilly, ska, goth, and thrash records constant rotation. Not great for specifically plus sized clothes, but amazing to find patches and music for your new vest as the selection is one of the best I've come across.

Dead Rockers, CA (vegan friendly)
Never been in person, but has an incredible variety of things. Unfortunately the sizing filter doesn't seem properly configured, so you can sort by size which is strange. However, after some investigation I found a 3x, so I imagine theres bigger sizes than that if you have the patience to dig a bit.
Punk Rock Store: Band Shirts, Patches, Clothing, Accessories, Pins, Patches, Leather, Vegan, Studs, Belts, Vinyl Records, Creepers, Boots an
Headline Records, CA (vegan options)
Pure punk record store at its finest. A piece of history on Melrose, has historic grade punk records as well. For all the people looking for plus size punk band shirts headline is a good option as sometimes go up to 6x for shirts that almost never seen in those sizes! Not to mention the best patch collection I've encountered so far. Plenty of cool accessories also.
Headline records is a punk store. With punk patches, punk back patches, punk stickers, 1" punk button, 2.25" punk button, punk posters, , pu
Posers Hollywood, CA (Plenty of vegan options surprisingly!)
Known for being one of the biggest carriers of Dr. Martens worldwide, this place has all kinds of other boots as well like Gripfasts and Undergrounds. They also have alot of Mod and Skinhead (check skinhead history on wikipedia if you are angry/confused why I'd recommend skinhead stuff. I actually totally get why that would be confusing if you're not familiar, so I figured I'd say something) fashion and brands. Not my speed clothing wise, but for plus size skins and mods; This is your holy land.
It's finally done! Thanks for all of you that participated in the poll, I settled on Handlers/Pigs for the tie breaker as no one (myself included 😂) could think of another good title. Each shot has a description of each part of the C.A.M.P. (Not pictured is a boxing ring to entertain the hogs & handlers, mini chem lab, and small barracks/workshop)
(Poll) FEEDIST NERD SHIT: FALLOUT EDITION
So I'm playing Fallout 76 (I know) and the new update killed my current C.A.M.P. and I have to move it. I've been sitting on an feedism OC concept, the idea is that a raider gang (possibly gonna tie the idea from lore as a splinter group from the Gourmands) that believe in hedonism to the extreme even after the world eneded. Indulgence of all kinds are practically religous practice, which has led to the unique obsession of keeping constantly fattened human "pets" as show of status from how sucessful raiders they are. (The usual caps, guns, and stuff they can raid. However the big prize [pun intended] includes rare dishes and pre war junk food they fatten thier pets with.) They're kept in their "pens" during the day, having bedside Port-A-Diners, Nuka-Cola taps, and Eat-o-tronics for around the clock gorging, and modified Mr. Handy's for cooking/medical/mobility care. With this, their pets are probably literally the fattest people in the Wasteland. Combine that with raiders chem cooking and booze stills its a true culture of debuchery. Picture a viking-mead-hall-esqe chem fueled feast parties, stage hosting bands and "pop the pigs" competitions, and "Milking the livestock" (Which any actual milk collected is mixed with Day Tripper and Grape Mentats. When drinking it, its described as "rich and buttery in your stomach and rich and buttery in your brain" calling the chem cocktail Opīmus.) [The latin word for fat/rich/fertile chosen straight from a stolen Vault-tec university textbook] Competing raiders weigh in their pets and have graphic show and tells, the nastier the better (super on brand for raiders actually) After a long day out on an adrenaline charged mission, amped as fuck on anything and everything. The day ends after raiding cool shit with a massive cookout and feeding and fucking the pet blobs waiting back at the camp.
Now here's the thing, I scoped out a few locations for the new C.A.M.P. that fit the lore but cant decide which to pick. Help me decide! The industrial farm is literally a junk food processing plant, the creamery for obvious reasons, and the homestead has shit tons of land for food (and 70 crops already ready to go)
How has your opinion of feedism changed the longer you’re into it?
So I stumbled across feedism at 19, actively started joining in with the community and when I was younger I was thinking that I'd love to get to 300lbs and I thought it would be so easy!
So now here I am in my early 30s, and now I fluctuate between 290 and 300. So it's definitely not as easy as it seemed!
And I when i was a little younger I wanted to gain fast and hard, but now I appreciate the slowness, feeling every new pound and the way it looks and feels, it's always been fun! ❤️
Okay, so. It sounds so simple to me but it's absolutely amazing.
Having a large meal, to the point where I'm almost too full, just content and happy,
but then having my feeder bring me dessert, feeding me while they rub my belly, encouraging me when I start to whine a little bit
and then when I'm finally done, they bring out a couple of pints of melted ice cream or a gain shake to funnel me with, praising me for my gluttony, but also making it clear that I won't get satisfaction until they're satisfied with how full my belly gets. Then sex. Slow, intimate, steamy sex, while holding and caressing my incredibly full belly. 😍🙈🤤
