Body-Positive Rue 107 Carries Stylish Plus Size Fashion for Women
Laura McQuarrie — April 10, 2015 — Fashion
Rue 107 is one brand that's taking care to ensure that plus size fashion for women is becoming more stylish and more readily available. As a body-positive brand, Rue 107's Curvy line comes in sizes 14 to 24, as well as a range of colors that embrace the spirit of spring. The inspiration behind the vivid color palette and prints actually stems from the Haitian roots of Rue 107's founder, Marie Jean-Baptiste.
Rather than boasting designs that help to slim figures, the Curve line specifically enhances voluptuous silhouettes. From bikinis to printed pants, wrap tops and jumpsuits, the collection empowers women to show off the parts of their bodies that they love the best.
As more major brands and magazines embrace models and non-models with curves, hopefully the clothing choices for plus size women will continue to grow.
