Plus size Sim

I see all these plus size clothes.  How do you create a plus size SIM.  To make them a little chubby is all bodyshop does.  The are not as big as the pictures I see under plus size clothes.

You need to install the plus size mesh and download recolors of the clothes so you can use it on your sims.

This applies to ANY custom mesh modifying shape sims appearance.

EDIT:  Special mesh are NOT using default maxis clothes so you always need to download recolors made with that mesh or you won't have much clothing choices.

I just figured out the clothes make them plus size.  When they are naked would they be skinny? Is there any way to fix that?

In order for them to keep their custom body shape, you'll need to have a "showerproof" skintone for them.  It's a skintone that has been fixed in such a way that it connects a specific mesh so that when the Sim is in it's naked state (showering) it will keep that shape.  I don't know what plus size mesh you'd be using, but most of the ones I've seen now have showerproofed versions available.
