And curvy girls across the nation rejoice
If you are blessed with curves, you're in luck now more than ever because plus size lingerie is big business! It's taken a while for undergarments to catch up with clothing in terms of selection and variety but now women are spoiled for choice. There are even a number of designers who are working towards introducing plus size lingerie to their collections and that can only be a wonderful thing. In the United States, the average measurements of a woman's bust, waist and hips has increased gradually over the last several generations. Women of generous proportions are changing the attitudes of marketers, manufacturers and service industries … and they're doing it with success and style, decked out beneath their clothing in sexy, empowering plus size lingerie.
It used to be a big girl's nightmare to find undergarments that not only fitted well but also felt good and looked pretty. It's never been fair that her wardrobe consisted of 'tent dresses' and 'nanna petticoats'. Why can't curvaceous women have access to romantic, flimsy teddies and bustiers? Well, now, even lingerie giants such as Victoria's Secret and Frederick's of Hollywood offer full ranges of plus size lingerie to die for.
When a larger-than-life goddess can walk into a Frederick's and have access to gorgeous bridal lingerie that actually fits perfectly and looks superb, you understand the revolution is now complete. Accompanied by the groom-to-be, who already knows she's the loveliest creature in the world, her eyes light up at the range of plus size lingerie to choose from. From her dreamy wedding dress, to her killer shoes and right down to her feminine, lacy panties, the big and beautiful bride-to-be will be a picture of happiness on her day of days.
Those versatile bras which convert from strapless to backless in one simple step can now be found in the plus size lingerie department. Garter belts are no longer available in 'one-size-fits-all' as more substantial ones are being produced to meet market demand. Big girls don't have to be content anymore with tacky, nasty negligees decorated with glitter, faux fur and cheap lace found in wholesale basements or adult stores. Style and good taste are not the sole domain of size four ladies and supermodels who can afford diamond encrusted bustiers.
A big hip hip hooray to the powers-that-be, who have recognized that women come in all shapes and sizes and they enjoy who they are and what they see in the mirror. Their men are also grateful for the acknowledgment and demonstrate their approval by spending significant sums of money to ensure plus size lingerie remains a priority for department stores and designers. It's win/win all over … big, beautiful, busty women unite!
