Plus size women are saying No more tent dresses or muu-muus, please!
In America alone, there are 40 million women over size 14, spending $25 billion a year on clothing, or a quarter of all clothing sales, according to American Demographics.

Women and girls are shopping for fashionable apparel no matter what their size.
London designer Anna Scholz, who is a size 20, is one of the few designers worldwide who are working to smash the barriers of sizism by offering fashion in sizes 8-26. "I think it's going to take ages for things to change and for shops to stock larger sizes as a part of their fashion sections," she says in Fashion UK "There is racism, sexism and sizism and I have a non sizist philosophy."

After years of hunting down obscure plus size departments, shoppers can now see styles in their sizes, right along with missy and junior sizes. Online shopping catalogs directed toward plus size women are providing trendy fashionable apparel, accessories and novelty for full figures.

Merchants such as Avenue, Catherine, and Silhouettes have sizes up to 7X.

Catherines offers classic career and casual clothing at moderate prices for plus-size women.
