I support Sonsi, 110% because they support my curves and are working hard to keep me in style!!
Great article.
Curvy hugs,

Here’s MY two cents: WHY did they wait so long??? Just because the female is plus size doesn’t mean they have to wear unflattering mumus!!!! It’s time for the plus size woman to be viewed as if you pardon the term, “objects of desire.” I don’t know about the other fellas, but IMHO curvy girls are way sexier than the skinny ones. Not to knock the skinny girls, but just more to love, you know?
This is such good news…finally our voices are being heard
You full-figured, FABULOUS females DESERVE it!!!!!
@terry It is companies like Sonsi who supports the brands that have been doing it for years. They are not jumping on the band wagon now. They have made a commitment to the plus community which is evident in what they do.. I love the Sonsi team for more than just the clothing. I have met those behind the scenes and they are genuine in their plight to give us valid options.
