Just like a year ago I stand by saying that  times have come a long way from the days that when you talked about plus size fashion one of the only names that came up was Lane Bryant.  This caused a lot of ladies and some men to create websites to fill the void left by mainstream department stores.  In the four years that I have been blogging about plus sizes I have seen the industry go from a few goto websites to dozens of websites that are offering everything from casual wear to formal wear.

Websites like IGIGI, Monif C. Plus Sizes, LeeLee’s Valise, Vicki V, and Rosalee Womensize Apparel all have helped to push fashion for larger women to the forefront.  Each has made a mark to let the establishment know that plus size fashions can be stylish and affordable at the same time.  In particular IGIGI and Monif C have made the transition from the web to a brick and mortar location showing that clothing for larger women is making its emergence into the fabric of mainstream apparel.

Plus size fashions appearing on shows such as American Idol and America’s Got Talent as well as plus size celebrities Queen Latifah, Jill Scott, Nikki Blonsky, and others are helping an industry that was once only filled with tent dresses, sweat pants and shorts come out of the shadows and make a splash around the world.

Costumes that are new for 2008 of course include all of the summer blockbusters for the kids. For the adults costumes include everything from funny to sexy like the barmaid costume shown below.  Typically the size ranges are 1-2x, but there are a few costumes that go up to 4X.

Honey Ale Plus Adult Costume Includes: Dress, headband, choker, two hair ribbons, and two stocking clips. Mug, thigh high stockings, and shoes not included. Available in adult Plus sizes 1X/2X and 3X/4X.

Shipping normally takes from 1-8 business days depending on your location. Buy Costumes only ships retail packages to the United States, Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico.  Shop early before all the good costumes are gone.

According to an email that I received she is wearing a shoe with a funny name.  When I hear Naughty Monkey the last thing that I think of is a pair of shoes.  These stylish shoes are available at Endless.com
the company that is known for FREE overnight shipping.

As you know managing and writing for a blog these days is tough.  One thing that I deal with on a regular basis is writing relevant content and managing the look of this blog.  There are some technical issues going on such as how this blog looks in different browsers that is beyond my ability to repair.

If any of you know of someone that is familiar with the PHP and HTML coding that makes up a typical Wordpress blog you please have them contact me at owner@fullfigureplus.com.  If some of you guys have the skills and would like to tackle it also feel free to contact me.
