For as long as we can remember, women’s fashion has been divided by terms like “plus size”,“petite”, “misses” and more. What’s wrong with fashion built for everyone? Absolutely nothing, and with the rise of size-inclusive fashion lines it looks like designers are beginning to agree.
“All size” lines, unsurprisingly, are for all sizes and designed to make women feel confident. We’ve compiled our list of favorite fashion lines whose goal it is to bring style to everyone, no matter what your tag says.
Allistyle
Repped by America’s Next Top Model Season 10 Winner Whitney Thompson, Allistyle in known for using sustainable fabrics in many of their collections. They were the first curvy fashion line to show at Toronto’s Fashion Week and remain dedicated to the idea that fashion is for all women with curves – “no matter if they are a XS or a 3X.” Their look book is full of versatile pieces – like the Alliwrap, which can be worn eight ways – that can seamlessly travel from work to home. Available on Allistyle.com.
