Gone are the days of size 18+ lurking in the shadows, muttering to ourselves…”oh, that probably doesn’t come in my size” once we’ve spotted something we love on the rack. Retail fashion brands like Cotton On and Superbalist have become more size inclusive over the years, as have many local designers and slow fashion brands, like Me&B.
The best thing about local designer brands like Me&B, is their detailed approach towards tailoring a look for plus sized women. It isn’t as simple as scaling up the size. There are many small tweaks that go into making sure a plus size garment takes all curves into consideration.
