Changes are being made in the fashion industry for those with larger frames, and it's about time. Of course the clothing brand still has a long way to go before it accepts plus-size bodies, but I'll say it nonetheless. If the last decade's progress toward plus-size acceptance is any indication of what the future decade will bring, then shopping for clothing won't be such a hassle.
We should also accommodate silhouettes that make individuals of all sizes feel like they are contributing to the discourse as we broaden the definition of what it means to be overweight in fashion and daily life. Brands should keep in mind this point while fabric sourcing. Young fashion designers are taking matters into their own hands by creating plus size-friendly companies and hubs for those who struggle to get fashionable, vintage clothing in their size.
The imaginative aspect of clothing creation should be available to anyone. Thankfully, the market for garments that fit larger bodies is expanding.
Lets enlist some clothing brands that promote plus size fashion exclusively.
