Have you seen most of the plus-size sections out there? It’s horrifying. Whoever’s designing for plus-size doesn’t get it. The entire garment needs to be reconceived. You can’t just take a size 8 and make it larger. In my travels, I’ve been an advocate for larger women. I’ve been talking to designers, but only a half-dozen make an effort. Most say, ‘I don’t want a woman who’s a size 10 or 11 wearing my clothes.’ Well, shame on you! It’s not realistic. We need to address real women with real needs.

He needs his own line and it needs to be available at Target.
BOOM!

I’ve never watched that show he’s on, but I like him for saying this. I usually just assume that everyone involved in fashion is an asshole.

I’ve probably posted about this before, but Tim Gunn’s first book on how to dress yourself really revolutionized how I think about clothing. He’s really inspirational, and he’s all about only having clothes you love, and only keeping clothes that fit, and only having clothes that make you feel good about yourself.
