Being overweight my whole life I often wondered why
these big name designers didn't tap into the plus size
market considering how much of the US population is
considered over weight, but then I realized why they
never did. It would tarnish their image of supporting
the skin flint bean pole market. Kudos to those
designers who are starting to tap into the plus size
market
