The A-Z guide continues with plus size fashion G-J
G is for… Gorgeous – HEY GORGEOUS! An online retailer offering on-trend, fashion-forward clothing for curvy women. Launched by fashion maven and industry insider Aimee Cheshire and entre- preneur Dave Wechsler heygorgeous.com is the first e-commerce website that provides such an exciting, multi brand offering for women size 10+ (US). Despite the reality that nearly 70 percent of American women are size 12+, the fashion world remains as narrowly focused as ever. “I’ve been privy to the pitfalls of the ‘plus’ industry for years having been a buyer, product developer, blogger and a model muse for design- ers that I never thought truly understood or satisfied my demographic,” said Cheshire, “HeyGor- geous.com will bring an end to that pattern by selling style-conscious clothes and trend-inspired pieces to all the women who cannot find them elsewhere. Myself included.” Hey Gorgeous! carries designer collections with extensive size offerings, including ABS Allen Schwartz, Adrianna Papell, Jessica Simpson, BB Dakota, Lyssé (plus many more) as well as a great range of indie designers lHike Line and Label, Cabiria, Anna Scholz, Carmakoma, among others, who have the know-how to create on-trend, plus size, wearable clothing without traditional limitations. http://www.heygorgeous.com | t: @heygorgeous

J is for… JANE WATSON Jane Watson was born through Jane’s incessant search to find clothes that fit her curvaceous body. She soon found that many other women shared the same frustration. Hailing from Asia, where fashion brands simply weren’t catering to plus size women, Jane decided that it was time that she championed the concept that big could not only be beautiful but also it was ok to be different. Jane wanted to rip up the rule book and show that curvy women didn’t want shapeless clothing.
The Jane Watson message has stuck true to ripping up the rules. No fashion item is off limits and it is all about how you style it. Jane’s philosophy follows through in the silhouettes, colour and print choice of her pieces. We love Jane’s philosophy and desire to provide a better choice of plus size fashion to women and remind them that we all have a right to fun fashion.
‘Big is Different’ by Jane Watson.
