Button and Bows - Celebrate Full-Figured Fashion By Brad Capo At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

There was a time when women had to make all of their own clothes. Patterns were passed down from mother to daughter, and girls learned homemaking arts from the earliest days of childhood. Those days are long gone, of course. Sadly, they sometimes seem to have taken the sought-after, turn-of-the-century appreciation for the full figured goddess with them. (How ridiculous!) There is simply no denying the allure of a naturally curvy woman.

Women have a seemingly endless list of responsibilities these days – and dreams to go with them. We are students, executives, business owners, administrators – and, oh yes – wives, mothers and homemakers. And while fashion is a vital part of the fabric of our lives – from the most slender to the plus size fashionista – there are very few of us who still know how to sew a dress. But buy a dress and appreciate the great artistry of a hand-painted plus size blouse or the flair of an A-line skirt – now that’s an art we haven’t lost!

The art of designing great fashion is timeless and worldwide. From the islands of Tahiti to the Upper West Side of Manhattan, women of all ages and sizes express themselves in fabric and color every day of the week. The rebirth of plus size fashion is a revolution that is long overdue – from the plus size blouse (in every style and fabric imaginable) to plus size lingerie, full figured women are reclaiming their right to be sexy and stylish.

And why not? Fashion is fun and it is important! Finding the right fabrics and designs to wear from Monday to Friday and all weekend long is not easy. From work to play and don’t forget the soccer field…developing this personal style definitely takes on an extra special meaning for the plus size woman.

Ever chasing that elusive outfit to look ten pounds thinner, plus size women everywhere have been locked in a prison of dark colors and vertical stripes for far too long.

So what are the plus size fashionista’s of the world to do? Let’s start with throwing out all of the rules. First of all, who says we have to look thin??? Being full-figured is beautiful, no matter how you look at it. Dressing in an unending variety of black outfits as if we are grieving our own “thin” selves has to go. Instead, let’s start a new fashion trend. One where we don every color of the rainbow and celebrate life. Reds and yellows and pinks and yes, even the biggest fashion no-no – horizontal stripes!

Plus size women need to start a revolution and remind everyone that beautiful women come in all shapes and sizes! And that needs to start with US! Hit your favorite department store (or make it easy and go online!) and choose two or three great pieces to kick off the New Year. Grab your favorite silk or satin plus size blouse or a pair of great white denim jeans. Go for it! 2009 is YOUR year! Hey, why not?
