Nowadays plus-sized women get to shop for real clothes, designed for their size, and to feel good about themselves in day or evening clothes. -----------------
On which planet is this? The clothes "designed for their size" are in reality designed only for women shorter than 5'6" who carry all their weight in their boobs/stomach. "Tall" plus sized clothing often adds a whopping 1/2 inch to the inseam and I've never seen tall tops. Even undergarments are affected. If you are short and big busted, finding a bra isn't hard. If you are tall or have a large rib circumference and small cup size, forget it. Finding evening wear and sports wear is a total joke. So is "classic" tailored styles. If you want to look like a teenage hooker you can find tons of plus sized clothing! I never thought I'd be sewing so much everyday wear for myself.
