The point really is that there are a lot more small clothes in mainstream stores than larger ones. Most small people can find something that will fit on their bodies in a mainstream store. Obviously there are some very petite or very slender people that have trouble, that’s a real thing, but there’s just no comparison between that and the very widespread and purposeful shutting out of plus-size consumers from mainstream clothing stores. Even places (like Old Navy) that offer plus-size options tend to make their plus size lines “web only” or don’t advertise that they exist at all. “Devalues the brand”. I guess our fatty money is not money they want.
Sorry to get off-topic, it just sticks in my craw. I find it hard to get excited about coolnewpants, even aside from their high pricetag, because coolnewpants ain’t made for people like me.
