Welcome to Plus Size Business Suites for Women
Welcome to the Welcome to Plus Size Business Suits for Women- I am glad you are here!
If you're a full figured woman career woman, then you know why I've created this site.
The ladder to success is a difficult one to climb whether you're male or female. However, if you're a full figured woman you face the additional pressure of the "discriminatory practices" of the fashion industry. In the fashion world, a full figured woman is defined as anyone who wears larger than a size 8.
Contrast that with the "real world"... you know, the world where women actually swallow their food! It's a world where women embrace their natural curves and don't live their lives with an unhealthy obsession with being "perfectly thin". It's a world where the definition of "success" is measured by more than just the size dress a woman wears.
According to SF Gate, the online home of the San Fransico Chronicle: American women are getting bigger. Sixty-eight percent wear a size 12 or larger, and 52 percent wear size 14 or larger, according to Grace magazine, a new publication aimed at what it calls "full-figured" women. Carre Otis, the supermodel, ballooned to a size 12, and now she is a plus-size model. Yes, that's right, the majority of women are plus sizes. Has anybody told Neiman Marcus? |
Professional women who do NOT fit the FASHION WEEK/SEX AND THE CITY body ideal STILL need to make a professional presentation. As a matter of fact, it's even MORE important for full figured women to "dress for success".
Unfortunately when you're full figured woman, you're facing a duel edged sword. Even though it's probably even MORE important for you to "dress for success", you'll find it harder to do so. The lack of selection of full figured fashions at your local upscale store makes finding great plus size business suits similar to the search for the Holy Grail!!
That's what this site is all about. Finding FABULOUS professional business attire for the 68% of us who wear a size 12 or larger!
