Full Figured Fashion Week


Every year, twice a year we watch the same slim models walk down the catwalk. Strutting their stuff in those slinky tiny dresses, fitted jeans, close to nothing tops and think, well gosh that’s definitely not what I look like. Knowing that as gorgeous as each item you see is something you would love to wear, but that isn’t how you’re shaped. Real women have hips, boobs, butt and sometimes some love handles. Where are those girls at? Where can I go see those fashion shows and those outfits? Well all is not lost.

Above the face of full figured fashion week 2010, Ms. Rosie Mercado

Full figured fashion week, is here for its second year, and definitely making their strides. Made to cater to the curvier women out there. To show us what the fashion world has to offer. Not the outfits that were originally made for the skinner girl and they extended it to size 18. This event showcases the designers who only cater to the lady who are blessed with more curves than others.

From June 16 -19, FFF will be hosted by Model Icon Emme. The event includes a fashion show, a shopping excursion, panel discussions, and a red carpet event along with a VIP cocktail reception. Designers will include Monif C Plus Size, Pure Energy, and Angel Alternative just to name a few.

Lladies Love: Isabel Marant



Parisian ladies have had one up on us when it came to the lovely and amazing Isabel Marant label. Sold only in niche boutiques (and gone before a girl can blink) hip honey's everywhere coveted the punky-but-sweet pieces, not to mention the boots that spawned year-long waiting lists and a million knock-offs (chunky, slouchy, straps, and grommets ring a bell?). Marant flatly refused to have the label sold online, and her only outposts were in France.

Well that all changed last month when Marant opened the doors to her first US location in New York City. Nestled in SoHo on Broome street, the chic spot is a guaranteed success. Somehow, we think that having line be slightly more accessible will only add to Isabel Marant-fever, stateside.
