In these times when many designers, stores, and companies have decided to abandon the plus-size line, still many of our tried and true favorites still refuse to abandon us. The census say that 60% of all purchasers of clothing are the plus-size public, we make up over half. Why is the fashion world forsaking us? “It is the recession”, many say. I disagree. However, the opinion of this examiner really does not mean much in the big scheme of things.
The plus-size or if you would rather call us, BBW of this world need to remain strong. How do we do this? Purchase from our favorite lines whenever and where ever we can. Hopefully, through these few articles on the Manchester eXaminer Plus-size Fashion home, many of you have been introduced or reintroduced to old favorites, new or tried and true.
Collectively, we need to spend our hard earned money at our old favorites and some new favorite fashion stores - online and off - to show the fashion world we are here and we are here to stay. You are beautiful no matter what your size. I would like to think of fashion as just accessories to our beauty. Show it off, flaunt this BBW beauty through accessories, fabulous clothing and wonderful attitudes. Now, it is time to show you some old and new stores in which you can mull over the many different expressions of your beauty. It is realized that there are more places to purchase quality plus-size clothing. These happened to be some of the more popular.
