  • Plus Size Fashion Getting More Attention From Designers

    plus sizePlus size women have long felt ignored by the fashion industry. “Plus” was treated like a dirty word in the fashion world, causing shame and confusion for those who didn’t fit the skinny, tall standard fashion designers kept pushing at us. Few major retailers and boutiques made clothes for plus size consumers and the ones that did hid their plus size offerings in separate sections or basements.

    Plus size is commonly considered between sizes 14 and 32, according to data from Plunkett Research. For the stores that stock plus size fashion, the stock is often so minimal that most sizes sell out quickly, making it difficult for customers to find items in their size. Brands like Michael Kors and Gap offer up to about a size 20, but in many cases the clothing in those sizes can only be found online. The perception among many was that designers welcomed plus size customers’ money, but not their presence in stores.

    Today, a new trend is emerging with more fashion designers turning their focus to the plus size market. Designers are focusing on plus size fashion that makes the buyer feel good about wearing it. The trend is not surprising as plus size consumers have become the majority. Plus size women now account for 67 percent of the population. The average size of a woman in the western world today is a size 14. In the United States alone, plus size clothing is now a $17.5 billion market.

    As plus size fashion becomes more common, more people are flocking to the designers that have embraced the fact that not everyone can be a size 2. There are many people who want to spend their money on plus size fashion but don’t know where to go. Many of the designers that only made clothing for those size 8 and below are finding that they are missing out on a significant portion of the market.

    Brands need to stop thinking that everyone who is bigger wants to hide it and start creating plus size fashion that the wearers can be proud of. The “Pink the Runway” fashion show, created by Crystal Carmen and Laura Mazurek and taking place at the Le Meridien Hotel on Oct. 30, features 30 plus size models in styles from local and national designers. There’s also a documentary coming out next year called “Straight/Curve” that questions whether size zero will remain the norm and talks about plus models as pioneers. More dialog about plus size fashion will hopefully encourage more designers to shift their focus to fashion that everyone can wear.

  • Fashionable Gloves Making A Comeback This Fall

    Fashionable Gloves Making A Comeback This Fall

    The fall fashion shows were showcasing fashionable gloves this year, showing that the hand-warmers are making a comeback in the world of fashion. At the Boss, Tracy Reese, and Band of Outsiders fashion shows, fashionable gloves were paired with business clothing to show just how fashionable these items can be. Oscar de la Renta and Tayna Taylor showed new designs for gloves meant to be worn with evening wear. If gloves are a fashion style that intrigues you, here are some rules for wearing gloves fashionably this fall.

    No Mittens

    No adult should be out and about wearing mittens. Mittens are not an appropriate style for grown-ups.

    Fitting Gloves

    Gloves are only fashionable if they fit properly. The gloves should fit the length of the fingers without appearing too short or hanging loose at the fingertips.

    Picking Plain Gloves

    Plain gloves are more interesting with details and a noticeable texture. Make sure the texture of the gloves doesn’t clash with the texture of your outfit.

    Complementary Colored Gloves

    When choosing fashionable gloves to go with an outfit, choose complementary colored gloves instead of matching colors exactly. This creates a more dramatic look and makes the gloves more noticeable.

    Day Gloves

    Gloves worn during the day should only be worn outdoors. When indoors, the gloves should be removed for etiquette’s sake.

    Evening Gloves

    Fashionable gloves for evening wear generally come in two colors, black and white, and are made of shiny fabrics like satin or silk. Shiny gloves should only be worn for evening events.

    Jewelry

    Watches and rings are typically worn under the gloves, not over them. Bracelets are the only jewelry worn over gloves.

    Replacing Gloves

    Fashionable gloves should be replaced if they have any snags or frayed threads protruding from them. Snags and frayed threads weaken the structure of the gloves and ruins their appearance.

    Shaking Hands

    Shaking hands with gloves is tricky. If wearing day gloves, it is polite to remove the gloves before shaking hands. Evening gloves can remain on when shaking hands, unless you are shaking hands with a head of state.

    Eating With Gloves

    Gloves should be taken off whenever you are eating. Proper etiquette advises that the gloves should be placed on your lap under your napkin during meals.

    Dancing With Gloves

    It is considered impolite to dance with a partner with your gloves on. The gloves can be placed inside a handbag or laid neatly at your place at the table until you return from the dance floor.
