29 Positive Plus-Size Spins

From Curve-Celebrating Catwalks to Costumes for the Curvy

— October 22, 2009 — Fashion

People judged, people ridiculed and people ignored the growing problems faced by many overweight individuals (er, Ralph Lauren). It’s important, however, to acknowledge the challenges faced by the curvier classes. This cluster not only highlights positive plus-size spins, it’s also a compilation of helpful alternatives such as clothing options and costumes.
