Find out about Full Figure Fashion Week!

Last week, from the 25th to the 27th a major fashion event for full figure fashion took place! The best way I know of to find out about it is to read Glen Johnson’s Full Figure Plus blog starting on 6/29 and the days ahead. He has only just begun to tell us all! He does say the mainstream media seemed to make no effort, about which he, like we should be, is disappointed. The rest is positive! The styles he shows so far are exquisite!

If you have shopped plus size fashions much at all you likely have come across Kiyonna. At Full Figure Plus’ June 29th post you’ll see a new style from, I think, their Daily Denim collection. I am featuring a new dress of theirs, which also comes in shirt style at the top of our dresses page. Below is, from their new arrivals, Kiyonna’s Hollywood track jacket, which also comes in navy and plum colors.

Below is Kiyonna’s highly rated Posey Patio Dress. Women like this dress’ length, comfort, figure flattery and sexy feel!

Click on any of these pictures above to check out the rest of Kiyonna’s beautiful full figure fashions!

Thank you Lara, looking forward to seeing your sports wear and Bra designs!

Lara commented on our post here of 6/21/09 saying that at www.heartancore.com she and her sister are hoping to provide, for us larger women, sizes 2 to 32, sportswear / lifestyle wear including wireless bras! She mentioned a molded cup high impact sports bra with cute styling.

Lara, if you are reading this, I tried the URL in your comment, and am not getting to your site. I am hoping it was just a mistype.

Currently I like the Enell sports bra, which you can back order in all sizes or order in a few sizes, for just $54. Its usual price is $60 or more. If you use the 15% discount code “mint” at Bigger Bras, until 6/30/09 you’ll get it at even greater savings!

Lara let me know if this is a typo, the url not working, as I really would like to see a cute sports bra in full figure sizes, as well as your other sports / lifestyle wear! Thank you for your nice comment!

I don’t know how long this will last but this underwire floral plus size bra is just $10, as are its matching panties. The bra comes in, some, sizes 42B to 46DD, the panties 14 to 28.

I don’t have any experience with Avenue’s bras, but I have worn their high waist shaping briefs, which I like. I wear their short, these days, and T-shirts and skirts all the time. Their apparel fits well, is comfortable and so far, about a year for me, durable!

This weather needs a bit of color, and Plus Size Women’s Clothing has it!

We have been having a near steady course of rain in recent weeks. It is times like these when I am glad our clothes provide some bright colors. While all of the stores featured at Plus Size Women’s Clothing have vividly colored clothing, when it has been dark and dreary this long, I think of urban fashions by Baby Phat, Apple Bottoms, Rocawear and Dereon.

You’ll find this dress, still available in sizes 2XL and 3XL at Apple Bottoms, in their Plus Size section. Click on Sale, then see The Last Bite in the left column. Click on Dresses and Jumpsuits to find this lined, chiffon with satin trim maxi dress to brighten your days!


This going fast persimmon colored Baby Phat top is still available in 2XL and 3XL, but available in 1XL as well in its rich brown and pale pink colors. You’ll find it in Plus Size in short sleeve tops at Baby Phat. They are showing lots of red, white and blue in new arrivals now.


This shirred snap placket red tee is still available in all sizes 1XL to 3XL at Rocawear. It has a vented hem and is mostly cotton.


This sunbeam t-shirt is 100% cotton, and comes in white, black and three more of Rocawear’s color saturated colors in sizes 1XL to 3XL!


Dereon’s Fleur flutter top is still avaialbe in size 1XL to 3XL in both onyx and this coral color below. You will find it in their Curvelicious section under tops.

Apple Bottoms and Dereon have deep rich browns and whites in their new arrivals these days. Their brighter plus size clothing from earlier in the season are still available and the sale sections of these stores are well worth checking out. All but Rocawear have size charts easily found in either their left column menus, or with each items descriptions.
I still love this Baby Phat pleated top below. It is all rayon. Can anyone tell me how 100% rayon feels in the summer? Is that good or bad for summer, for the normally too hot?

If all rayon is good for fall, it comes in a deep chocolate, with gold accents color, too!

What bra sizes are Plus Size and Large Cup Bras?

I often wondered what sizes other women considered to be full figure, or large cup bras. I was wondering just that, while looking through the brands with specials this week at Figleaves. I was checking out the DD+ specials, looking for good reviews on the given special brands, when I noticed these Ultimo DD+ bras.
Both of these bras below have 5 star reviews, but they only come in cup sizes up to G and band sizes up to 38. Would you would call full figure, plus size or large cup size bras?


This bra below has 3 100% five star reviews!


If you have a moment, please let me know what you consider to be plus size, full figure and large cup bras.
