What is a plus size fit model?

A Plus Size Fit Model is a professional who helps fashion brands ensure their clothing fits and drapes correctly on plus-size bodies. Unlike runway or print models, fit models work behind the scenes, trying on garments during the design and production stages. They provide feedback on comfort, sizing, and movement, helping brands create well-fitting clothing for plus-size consumers. Fit models must maintain consistent body measurements and work closely with designers, pattern makers, and product developers.

What does a plus size fit model do?

A typical day for a Plus Size Fit Model involves attending multiple fittings where you'll try on sample garments and provide feedback on fit, comfort, and movement to design and technical teams. You will collaborate closely with designers, pattern makers, merchandisers, and sometimes product managers to help refine fit and style. This role often requires frequent standing and changing, clear communication skills, and maintaining punctuality for appointments. Working as a fit model is a hands-on, interactive process that directly influences the final look and feel of the brand’s clothing line.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a plus size fit model?

To thrive as a Plus Size Fit Model, you need precise body measurements within the brand’s required size range, excellent body awareness, and the ability to maintain consistent proportions. Familiarity with fittings, garment construction basics, and industry measurement tools are typically expected, though formal certifications are not usually required. Professionalism, strong communication, and the ability to give and receive constructive feedback are valuable soft skills for this role. These skills are essential to accurately represent the target consumer, facilitate productive feedback for designers, and maintain long-term, successful relationships with brands.

Our Company: Originally founded in 1975, BCI has continually evolved to become a leader in the women's fashion industry. Launching initially with CHAUS and private label lines and then expanding into a multi-brand platform business, we have been at the forefront of market trends and the changing retail environment.

When you're not in fittings, you'll support the Design department by:
  • Assisting designers with changing priorities and day-to-day needs
  • Managing visitor access, building credentials, and office entry systems
  • Supporting PLM data organization, cleanup, and system integration
  • Helping organize design materials, fabrics, samples, and workspaces
  • Jumping in wherever needed to help the team stay productive in a fast-moving environment

Requirements
We're Looking For Someone Who Is
  • Exceptionally organized and detail-oriented
  • Highly dependable with excellent follow-through
  • Positive, proactive, and eager to learn
  • Comfortable juggling multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • Flexible and willing to jump in wherever help is needed
  • Professional, discreet, and trustworthy
  • Passionate about fashion and excited to begin a career in the industry

No previous fashion industry experience is necessary-we'll teach you everything you need to know.
Fit Model Requirements
To ensure consistency during garment development, candidates must meet the following fit specifications:
  • Female
  • Height: Approximately 5'7"-5'9"
  • Wears a women's size 6 (required for fit modeling purposes)
