With the demand getting greater from larger men and women for more trendy fashion, the demand for high fashion or couture level items was sure to follow. The question remains though, “Who sells high fashion clothing for fuller figures?”
As I started to look around the selection though small still is light years ahead of what it was years ago. I could very well go with the common names in high fashion but I think that some of the lesser names would be more appropriate.
The new kid on the block as far as higher end plus size fashions is Monif C. Plus Sizes. I have talked about Monif C several times and still think that her clothing made from everything from Italian silk to crushed velvet scream high fashion. With more long time designers opting for comfort, one dress from Monif C that epitomizes this is the inspired by Halton convertible dress. As one size fits all that can go from a size 8 to a 24 making it easy to go from casual to after five with a few minor adjustments.
Though not as big as some of the other names yet Monif C fashions are sold all over the world in both boutiques and online. It won’t be long before her fashions are right next to others during fashion week.
You can still get larger sizes from names like Elizabeth by Liz Claiborne, Guuci and others, but why got to a merchant that does not know the plus size frame when you can get clothes made with fuller figures in mind.
