Leading The Way
One of the leading department stores has recently taken a huge step forward in the fashion industry, renowned US store Saks Fifth Avenue has made a decision to start selling plus-seized women’s wear from some of their top designer brands. This is a great advance in the fashion industry and is displaying a refreshing positive attitude to how the industry views women’s body and changing the way they are perceived. Saks are promoting this change in opinion and helping to show that there is a wide range of body types and every brand no matter how high end luxury they are should all start to cater for every type of shape.
The American department store, which has a reputation for being an essential shopping destination for all fashion followers visiting New York, stocks a wide range of well known designers from Chanel, Dolce Gabbana, Fendi and Yves Saint Laurent all of which have been thought to be a part of this proactive change. For the autumn winter collection these high end designer brands will stock some of their pieces up to a UK size 20-22.
Saks have issued a statement that they are proud to be leading the way in meeting the needs of their valued clients. Here are Gray and Osbourn we have also been part of this movement and feel we have always lead the way by offering a wide range of designer brands in sizes 8- 26. At Gray and Osbourn we have always felt it was important that every woman no matter what her shape or size should be able to wear the clothes she desires.
Many women can feel excluded and isolated by certain fashion brands who only stock up to a size 16 or even if they do stock larger sizes they tend to be in short supply which can become frustrating. However there is a change in attitude towards sizes and this is perhaps best demonstrated with fashion bible Vogue launching the Vogue curvy website that provides great tips and advice on fashion for curvy women. The website displays models in the latest looks and tends from top designers all available in larger sizes.
Gray and Osbourn have always been proud to stock a wide range of sizes through out its collection. Our new autumn collection has a fantastic range of outfit’s available including the beautiful Betty Barclay box jacket in sizes 10-22 and the sexy Gina Bacconi bodice dress in size 10–20. No matter what your style or shape here at Gray and Osbourn we have something for everyone.
