Plus Size Icons

Lane Bryant introduced their new Icon collection. The pieces offered are supposed to be inspired by the runways of Paris, Milan, and London. Luckily these are more wearable. Most of the pieces are career oriented and have a higher price point, I’m assuming because of their claim of using the finest fabrics. I also think they are trying to latch onto a new niche of shoppers looking for finer clothing. The name and product kind of remind me of Addition-Elle’s regular line and their new Love & Legend released earlier this year. I think their regular customers may bark at the higher price points but boutique shoppers may be drawn in.
There are currently just over twenty pieces but there were a few pieces that really stood out for me:

Icon-Collection-Plus-Size

The cold-shoulder silk blouse is $98 and is available in sizes 14 to 28. The ponte knit pant is $49.50 and available in sizes 14 to 28 (as well as tall and petite). The teardrop earrings are $19.50. The only thing they are missing from their Icon collection is footwear.

  • The Short Substitute

    I am not a “shorts” person. Never have been. It probably has something to do with the pantie shorts I was forced to wear in gym class in high-school (back when gym was a requirement for graduations). I do however love capri pants, short pants, crop pants, whatever you want to call them. And being…

    Plus Size Jumper

    Now this is what a jumper is supposed to look like on a adult. Not those loose frumpy things I’ve been seeing with the crotch hanging down mid-thigh like a saggy diaper. I absolutely love this Jim Jumper from Rocawear. The cotton, polyester, spandex blend shows off the curves by hugging the body; but not…
