Here's the First Plus-Sized Show in the History of Fashion Week
LatestEden Miller presented the Spring/Summer 2014 collection for her clothing line Cabiria last week. This small designer wouldn’t necessarily be the subject of much talk, except that her line was the first to show at New York Fashion Week that featured clothing exclusively for plus-sized women.
When the news was announced, Miller wrote on her site, “This is such a huge milestone for legitimizing plus fashion, and incredibly exciting for me personally.” But before she showed, some were skeptical the line would make much of a difference, like The Cut‘s Kurt Stoller, who told the Atlantic Wire that “Truthfully the fashion schedule is so busy…I think it’s really hard for a small brand to break through at something like New York Fashion Week.”
