For many years now more and more fashion stores are opening their doors to dress the fuller figure lady and gentleman.  I have found so many wonderful stores that actually have proper fashion items and of the stores that I have personally bought from, the clothes are made well, fit well, look amazing and make me feel so much more confident.  I have even gotten noticed in a positive way.  It was like I wasn’t overweight at all, and they just liked my top I was wearing.  It was unusual but felt great.

Obesity epidemic in the fashion industry is growing and whether people accept it or not it is out there.  The fashion industry recognises the trends and even though we have come a long way from what used to be plus sizes, we are still on the back burner.  The industry needs to realise that plus size women still need to feel glamorous and feel like a women regardless of their size.

Quite a few of the plus size stores that I will link you to through my website actually have plus size model searches.  I think it is extraordinary that this is actually happening.  It is so nice to open a magazine or look at a brochure and see a plus size model wearing the very clothes you will be buying yourself.  It is realistic and let me tell you I think it will be a big PLUS for the actual store who promotes this.

Be impressed with these stores as I have been and please leave me your comments and questions below, or e-mail me.  I would love to hear from you and am very interested in your thoughts and your questions.  Please also email any suggestions of what you want me to write about.  I will do my best to research this and get back to you.
