Creation of a very realistic fat suit

I’m looking for a very realistic fat suit for a personal project. I want something bulky, capable of simulating extreme obesity (see the images I’ve attached). I’ve already tried some basic options on Amazon, but I’m looking for something much more realistic.

Does anyone have any recommendations from manufacturers or artisans who create this type of costume in foam or silicone? If you have any feedback or contacts, I’d love to hear from you!

Thanks in advance for your advice! (I mean someone around 400/500 lbs)

A recommendation would be using a leotard and then adding layers of polyester fiberfill. It’s a practice used in plays and some movies like Avengers Endgame (Thor). For a bigger size, you need to create a semispherical cage structure at the belly and pelvic portion that can help you stay insulated despite looking really fat. The problem with the cage is that you have to wear clothes to cover up the structure just to look pudgy.

If these don’t work for you, there are more techniques that can be used to simulate fat. It’s just that making a polyester fiberfill body is one of the most effective ways to do it. Try this link I have right here. This is what’s used for movies so characters can look fat or muscular.
