Did you hear that? Listen…. It’s like the Hallelujah chorus singing for Plus Size Woman Everywhere. No, it’s not an echo from St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York-but instead-it’s just across the street at Saks Fifth Avenue. Saks has called on the fashion Gods: Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Yves Saint Laurent, Roberto Cavalli, Alexander McQueen and many more ( “very high end designers”-with emphasis on high end..almost exclusively Couture…) to finally create clothing that fits a woman with curves. Saks Fifth Avenue will be the first retailer in the U.S. to carry this expanded line. The “average” American woman weighs 165 pounds and stands a petite 5’4” -and yet the poor girl has no high end frocks to wear!!! SO many woman and so little design…it’s almost a sin!
Thank Goodness for Saks on Fifth Avenue in New York and all the Fashion Gods, that have chosen to expand their vision beyond a size 12.
Amen!
**High End Designs for the plus size woman will be available only at Saks Fifth Avenue (New York) to start. If successful in New York- Saks will expand the line to reach other destinations nationwide…we can only pray this happens!
