Fashion Designers Embrace the Curvy Girl

Lane Bryant has turned away from the days when they “called all chubbies” into the store.  While they still make fashionable clothes for full-figured women, they are also introducing a hip new line for plus-size teens.  Err…did I just say hip?  I meant hideous! Way to miss the mark, LB.

On the bright side, at least buxom babes of all ages can find fabulously frills bras and panties from some sexy, curve-loving labels.  Va-va-voom!

Here at College Candy, we too love some curvy ladies…but do you guys?  Seems like the room is divided when it comes to understanding the negative backlash.

    While this post was better than the last one, in my opinion, I still fail to see why we need posts like this. It would have been better as a fresh, fleshed-out article that had some links in it. Posts like this have NO PURPOSE at all.

    I agree with Lisa; I don't know what the purpose is of all of these "posts" that lack any substance and run only a paragraph or two in length. Quality over quantity, please.

    FWIW I think the 3 outfits here are really cute. I'm not plus size..they all look like things I own just bigger.

    Stop trying to incite controversy.

    I was hoping for a bit more detail here.

    Also, the miss on the outfits is one bloggers opinion, and not even a blogger from this site. This disappoints me. My sister is plus sized, 15 and loved a lot of the stuff on the site, and I would say she dresses pretty well for her age. It was an adult reviewing the site wasn't it?

Tell us what you're thinking...
