My prayers have finally been answered. I and many other curvy girls have been complaining about the fact that many of our designers do not cater to the size 14+ body type. I mean you see a dress that you really like and the price is reasonable but no sizes yikes!!! This happened to me a lot to the point that I just gave up looking at certain sites. I talked about it on twitter the other day and a designer told me that they can customize for me. I said I want to be like everyone just walk in, pick up and move on. I don't want to wait weeks for one dress. Well guess what ? someone was already working their magic behind the scenes. Meet Serwah Asante the Creative Director and Founder of Rue 114. The line was launched back in 2010 as a platform upon which to celebrate beauty and style at all sizes.
Remember when I introduced you to this plus size designer back in January and was going all gaga about it ? I am sure you do . Well here is another designer you might want to bookmark when you decide to buy a fly outfit . I get pretty exited when I get an email or find a designer that designs with prints and caters to full figured women because there aren't many out there. With the popularity of African prints every fashionista wants a piece of the pie especially if you live in west. "Dearcurves is an African Inspired clothing line for plus size women.
