Plus size fashion used to mean specialist collections of clothes for people who wore larger sizes. Whilst this is still true to an extent, the actual collections of clothes have become closer in style to other fashion lines, meaning plus size people can still enjoy fashionable items of clothing at good prices. This is a positive move for the clothing industry, as everyone can have access to beautiful garments in the right size for their figures.

Many high street shops now have plus size clothing as part of their regular, everyday collection. This is a very good move indeed, meaning that plus size women don’t need to shop in specialist shops, which could make them feel insecure and might limit their fashion choices. It’s a good move for shops and the fashion industry as well, as there is always going to be demand for clothing in size 16 plus, and larger sizes too.
