Partner with A Plus Market

Who we are
A Plus Market is Australia's flagship plus size fashion market where people who wear sizes 16+ or 2XL+ come together to buy and sell preloved clothes, shop from inclusive local brands, and break the fast fashion cycle.
At our quarterly markets and beyond, we emphasise accessible fashion, getting and keeping fabulous garments in circulation, and fostering fat community for safety and wellbeing. At A Plus, everyone is welcome to take up space.
Across our events, social media following, and mailing list, we have a highly engaged audience of thousands of plus size babes.

Who we work with
At A Plus, we work with brands and organisations we're excited to get behind, and whose values align tightly with our own.
We've partnered with several major festivals including the Melbourne Fashion Festival, Midsumma Festival, the Human Rights Arts & Film Festival, and the Emerging Writers’ Festival to host events, panel discussions, and pop-up activations.
We've partnered with brands like 17 Sundays, Taking Shape, Made590, Sanct Clothing and Vagary for market-day sponsorships.
In the media, we have partnered with Refinery 29 on a piece exploring plus size street fashion, and we've been featured in ABC News, SBS, Pedestrian, Peppermint Magazine, and on podcasts including Faternise, Inspire Wellness, and Moana Hope’s Entrepreneur Her.

Charity partnerships and committments
We work with charity partners to provide clothing donations at the end of many of our events, offering a way for preloved stallholders to donate any unsold items and ensure that their clothing doesn't end up in landfill. Past charity partners have included Red Cross, Sacred Heart Mission and the Good Op Shop.
We have also run public clothing drives with Transgender Victoria, Fitted for Work, and TGD Naarm.
As part of our commitment to climate and racial justice, we donate 1% of our profits to Seed Mob.

Runway and wardrobe partnerships
The most visible way to partner with A Plus is through our runway and wardrobe opportunities.
The runway is an important focal point on market day, helping inclusive brands reach their plus size audience with immediacy and fanfare, and connecting authentically with the A Plus community.
Because market organiser Sam is so visible on market day, wardrobe partners get an exclusive opportunity to show off their gear. We spend a lot of time talking about what we’re wearing on market day, and tend to show up in photos and footage all over the place.
To learn more about the A Plus reach, values, and how we can work together, check out our partnerships kit below.
Looking for something else?
We’re excited to talk about how we can work together to connect the A Plus community with brands and products that are tailored to plus size folks.
If the opportunities above aren’t quite right for you, get in touch - we’re happy to tailor something special to get it just right.
