Well, well, well—I guess Target wasn't totally full of shit when they pinkie-promised that sharp new plus-size clothing was coming. Will wonders never cease? » 1/21/15 10:10am 1/21/15 10:10am

Rum+Coke is a brand you may have only just heard of. It's only about a year old and while the clothes are beautiful (and affordable), it's just taking off. What's special about the brand, however, isn't just the clothing: It's the fact that designer Courtney Smith only used plus-size models in her photo shoots. » 12/31/14 7:45pm 12/31/14 7:45pm

Shopping as a fat woman is a wholly different experience than five years ago. Once relegated to the Macy's basement, the shitty end of the mall, God forbid the catalogs, now we've got access to neon and sophisticated florals and horizontal stripes and crop tops and two-piece bathing suits. Even the whack garbage is… » 9/16/14 10:50am 9/16/14 10:50am

Kelly Osbourne is launching a clothing line — Stories by Kelly Osbourne — on September 25 on HSN. But the reality star/red carpet correspondent/Fashion Police host has an interesting take on the business of making clothes: "I don't think the fashion industry is fair," she says. » 8/22/14 12:20pm 8/22/14 12:20pm

For some reason, the fashion industry still can't seem to get its shit together when it comes to serving plus-size consumers. For every beautiful Isabel Toledo for Lane Bryant collection, there's a store condescendingly robo-complimenting plus-size shoppers. » 8/08/14 5:50pm 8/08/14 5:50pm

Another "plus-size" model has weighed in regarding the label and its merits. This time it's Hayley Hasselhoff (yes, daughter of David; she also appeared on the short-lived-but-excellent ABC Family show Huge) and she's actually pretty cool with the label. » 2/25/14 6:30pm 2/25/14 6:30pm

At the end of January, a Virginia teen launched a petition asking Disney to add a plus-sized princess to its cast of characters. As of today, she's gathered more than 25,000 signatures. Good for her!

Robyn Lawley has been getting noticed lately as a fresh face in plus-size modeling, appearing in ads for Chantelle, Barneys New York and Mango's new plus-size line. But actually, she'd prefer that everyone stop calling her a plus-size model. » 1/24/14 5:15pm 1/24/14 5:15pm

Has Wet Seal, the store you likely shopped at in middle school and then forgot about, become a secretly legit company? Or is it just another clothing monstrosity with a mixed history? » 12/12/13 1:50pm 12/12/13 1:50pm

Yes, before anyone says anything, that is a plus-size model. (I know, I know.) As a fan of Mango's particular type of sexually liberated woman wear, I'm excited. You know what they say: the shorter the skirt, the closer to god. » 12/11/13 10:10am 12/11/13 10:10am

Let us take a moment to throw back our heads and cackle with full-throated, schadenfreude-infused mirth: Abercrombie & Fitch, that floundering mess of a company whose corporate strategy can best be summed up as "Extremely thin hotties only (no fat people allowed)," is now introducing larger sizes for women because… » 11/07/13 5:40pm 11/07/13 5:40pm

Four years after launching, Rent the Runway is finally offering up plus-size clothing options.
