How to Shop Ashley Stewart Stores and Website

Plus-sized women everywhere can thank real estate investor Joseph Sitt for bringing Ashley Stewart stores and clothes to the masses. Sitt founded the retailer in 1991, after identifying a massive unserved market: upscale, plus-size professional women living in New York.

Today, Ashley Stewart sells budget-friendly and trendy plus-size styles, sizes 10 to 36, through its website and 89 retail locations in 22 states.

Ashley Stewart clothing line: Highlights

Ashley Stewart clothes. First, let’s cover the basics: What can you find at Ashley Stewart stores? The Ashley Stewart line-up is extensive. You can find the usual suspects — dresses, tops, bottoms, jeans, jackets, activewear, swimwear, intimates, jewelry, bags, and belts. Seasonally, you can also buy plus-size Halloween costumes.

The vibe is fun but not excessively youthful or overtly sexy. That’s not to say you can’t find a sexy date night dress at Ashley Stewart — you can. But it will be sexy in a natural way, not by way of overexposed lady parts. Notably, Ashley Stewart’s website also has a category labeled “Churchflow,” which includes more modest dress designs for conservative occasions — church outfits, essentially.

Here are some of the more popular Ashley Stewart collections:

1. Body shapers

Ashley Stewart body shapers are not Spanx, but they are still very popular. The Ultra Smoothing Shapewear Bodysuit is normally priced in the mid-$30s and has a perfect, five-star rating. Available in black and cappuccino.

2. Spring jackets

The jacket collection isn’t designed for tough weather — consider them spring, summer, and fall pieces only. But what they lack in warmth, they make up for in style. Find colored denim jackets, fun windbreakers, quilted jackets, and more.

This olive quilted bomber is available for $89.50 normally, on sale in September of 2022 for $53.70.

3. Fall collection

The new arrivals in fall 2022 include solid-colored, ribbed knit sweaters, maxi dresses, leggings, patterned pants, and pencil skirts. My pick is the distressed longline denim jacket for $99.50.

4. Church dresses

Here’s a cute piece in the aforementioned collection of church dresses. This fun plaid A-line dress can be yours for $69.50 or less.

5. Earrings

Earrings at Ashley Stewart are low-cost designs you can wear on the regular, without worrying about losing one. The orange cascading resin earrings shown above are typical of the line-up — interesting and colorful. They’re priced at $14.50 normally.

Ashley Stewart prices. As you might have guessed by now, the prices are reasonable. Here’s more detail on what you can expect:

  • Dresses are $55 to $70.
  • Tops are $20 to $50.
  • Pants are $40 to $70. Leggings are on the low side and jeans are on the high side.
  • Jewelry is $20 to $30.

With sales, you can save up to 40% off those prices — which means you could save $20 off a $55 dress.

Ashley Stewart shopping tips

1. Check the sizing chart.

You can find the Ashley Stewart sizing chart here.

Or, even better, shop in store. Find an Ashley Stewart location near you here.

2. Know what you’re buying.

Online purchases of items marked as “Web Exclusive” can only be returned by mail to the Ashley Stewart warehouse. You cannot take these into an Ashley Stewart store near you.

Also, final sale merch cannot be returned, period. If the price ends in .98, it’s final sale merch.

3. Keep your receipt.

You can return items for a full refund within 30 days if you have the receipt. Without the receipt, you’ll get store credit.

4. Sign up for emails or texts

I normally don’t recommend signing up for messaging, but you don’t want to miss Ashley Stewart’s sales. It’s silly to pay full price at a store that discounts often. Make sure you’re in the know somehow — either through emails, text or visiting the site’s homepage daily.

5. Shop “Sale by price”

Tap Clearance from the main menu at AshleyStewart.com and you’ll see the “Sale by price” options. These are collections organized by the size of the discount. Right now, there are three choices:  up to 40% off, up to 50% off, and final sale up to 75% off. Jump right to those categories first and you may not need to look at anything full price.

6. Earn Diva Dollars

Diva Dollars are store credits you earn by shopping. They’re similar to Kohl’s cash.

Ashley Stewart defines when you earn Diva Dollars and when you can redeem them. If you’re shopping in an Ashley Stewart store, you’ll provide your email and phone number at the register to earn. Note that the coupons you receive in-store are only valid in-store.

If you’re shopping online, remember to login before you check out. You won’t earn your Diva Dollars if you checkout as a guest. You can spend the coupons you earn online either in-store or online.
