When we go to watch a movie at the cinema, we almost never stop and think about everything that happened behind the scenes to make the movie possible ; the same thing frequently occurs when we are out and about shopping for clothes, we almost never think about the person who truly created the apparel we acquire .
Probably, some might not think it very useful to know the history of the people creating the fashions we wear. But, I find it interesting and intriguing to get to know more and explore. Just like getting to know what inspires a writer to put thoughts and ideas into words, it is fascinating to me to discover the passions and inspirations of those who create the flattering plus size clothing we wear.
That is the reason why I have decided to take a closer look at three unequaled and talented plus size clothing designers, in a bid to bring you a little step closer to those who design the awesome plus size clothing we have available on the market today. Knowing ‘where your clothes come from’, like a piece of art, will make you cherish them more.
Kim of Kiyonna
Kim Camarella-Khanbeigi is the President and Founder of one of the top plus size clothing stores currently around, Kiyonna. Inspired by a beautiful and curvy friend who had all her clothes sewn by her mother, Kim launched Kiyonna online in 1996. She is committed to making plus size women look and feel gorgeous through the fashionable, quality apparel provided through the Kiyonna brand.
Yuliya Raquel of IGIGI
A fashion designer born and raised in Ukraine, Yuliya felt the need to provide full figured women with beautiful apparel, when she saw how difficult it was for her own mom to find clothes in her size that made her feel like a gorgeous and chic woman. Through IGIGI, Yuliya can now provide big beautiful women with clothes which do not just make them feel lovely, but which also accentuate their figure. Yuliya designs from the heart and is often also inspired from her travels around the world and America.
Monif of Monif C. Plus Sizes
A very artistic person deep down, Monif C. saw the need curvy women had for fashion forward and sexy clothing, and set off on a mission to gratify this need, and dare I say, Monif is doing a super job at it! Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, Monif is inspired by life and her aspirations. Her aim is to provide curvy women with colorful plus size fashion which makes them feel stylish, inspired, luxurious and sexy.
It is interesting, getting to know a little more about plus size clothing designers and the inspirations behind the clothes we wear. There is a lot more than fabric to a garment, more which can turn a stunning dress into an inspiring work of art.
