There is a change coming.

                        

High Fashion has not always been kind to the fuller figure. Combinations of clothing that could only be worn by 00 models are often produced. Cut outs, mini skirts, backless dresses, sheer items, you name it. Leggings are a plus size woman's worst nightmare, so is the lingere and sheer trend that is going on right now. You can forget 5 inch heels and short skirts. But lately, a change has been happening.

For the past few runway seasons the fashions shown on the runway have been somewhat more figure friendly. It all started with Mad Men. Oh the Mad Men craze that was going on for a while. Christina Hendricks inspired a whole fashion movement with her bosom! Soon after in the Fall/Winter 2010 runway seasons Marc Jacobs, Prada, Louis Vuitton, and others were producing clothes that would look good on a size 14+ woman! Curves were embraced and accepted during this fashion season. Louis Vuitton even used plus size models and Victoria Secret models! They were producing sillhouettes that enhanced a womans curves. Something that hasnt been done much in this generation.

This summer is another winner for a fuller figured woman. Breezy sillhouettes, light cottons, and pretty draping wil be a must for the summer. Not to mention the seasons favorite shoe: the wedge, a godsend for a plus size woman. Take advantage of these flattering looks!
