Clothing for the large woman
Abstract
"One in every four women in the United States wears a size 16 or larger dress. Regardless of demand, clothing in large sizes is difficult to find in a wide price range. Clothing for this group frequently sacrifices fashion for comfort unless the consumer buys in the most expensive price range. Like most women, the large woman wants fashionable clothing with good fit, comfort and a reasonable price tag. All too often she must sacrifice one of these to get the other. Many times when fashionable clothing can be found, it's not proportioned, from a design standpoint, for the large figure."--First paragraph.
