Grecian Dressing

Link Love:Grecian Dressing

I wore this to a Toga Party themed wedding shower recently. I wasn’t going to go crazy & spend money on a costume, also I don’t own white sheets. So I shopped for a Grecian-like dress. This is what I came up with. $17.99 at Ross - can’t beat that!

Enzo Angiolini sandals, dress from Ross ($17.99), Target cardigan – pinned up to show more waist ($12), Walmart necklace ($5)

I might actually end up taking this one on the cruise for the formal dinner. It just seems easier than the Tahari I had lined up.

7 High End Designers You Never Knew Fashioned Plus Size

The Fashion Web — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 16:10:56 +0000

There’s been big debate over the role of Plus Size in the fashion cycle, some claiming the “genre” just doesn’t fit in high fashion. Well a few designers disagree and have successfully launched lines for big girls who want alternatives to Lane Bryant and Torrid. Check out the picks…

1. Adrianna Papell

2. Elie Tahari

3. MICHAEL Michael Kors

4. Melissa Masse

5. Rachel Pally White Label

6. Tadashi Shoji

7. T-Bags

Keep in mind that you’ll still be paying designer prices for these look so know what you’re paying for. You can wait till the end of the season to shop these collections on clearance, but keep in mind that if you want more designers to create seasonal trends for your size, you really must speak with your wallet and show support.

Also keep in mind that just because a designer sells plus size, doesn’t mean you’ll find their looks in department stores. Many times you will have to look online to find the looks you love in your size, but with todays great return policies, this shouldn’t be a problem. Just order things in one or two sizes to get a good feel for the looks and return the one that doesn’t fit.

What do you think?

Did you know these designers catered to your curves?

Are there any others you’d suggest?

Rebecca Alexander — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 17:45:19 +0000

Terry Richardson shot model-style maven indie fave Erin Wasson at the Audubon Terrace in New York’s Washington Heights because the setting looks similar to several other cities around the world. “Erin Wasson was a perfect fit for the campaign because she is known for her own distinctive style and she embodies the Elie Tahari woman, who is glamorous, cool, independent and modern,” said Rory Tahari, vice chairman and creative director. Images from the campaign will also be included in the brand’s first catalogue, which will be sent to customers and available in stores.
