Three well respected women and bloggers have decided to take a stand against Target and their lack of clothing for plus size women. I was recently forwarded this much needed letter from my friend, The Curvy Fashionista (Marie Denee) and I think all of the readers of DailyVenusDiva.com should not only read it but should sign the petition as well.
From The Desk of the Curvy Fashionista:
Dear Target,
Each season, you skillfully and beautifully execute exclusive designer collaborations and partnerships with leading fashion designers. As plus size women, we are oft neglected, overlooked and always sized out of your collections.
Why?
We have money to spend as much as our straight sized sisters do. We love to look just as fabulous as the other Fashionistas, yet you neglect to even think of us in the equation. We fawn over the Zac Posen for Target, and strategically finagle through the cuts that could pass on our curves; salaciously we look as each fantastic and highly coveted collaboration passes us along- due to you ignoring our thirst and hunger for fashion.
Why?
Therefore, I, Marie Denee of The Curvy Fashionista, Patrice of Afrobella, and Sarah of Style It Online have come together with our followers and the fa(t)shionistas within the plus size community to request, demand, and call for an inclusion of and/or special designer collaborations for the plus size fa(t)shionistas.
