There are other stars to mention but for now I am shining the spotlight on Monif C. Plus sizes and 10 knockout dresses that would be a fantastic addition to any wardrobe.

This weeks entry for Dress for Success is Monif C. Plus Sizes. Every since I found her Ebay store to featuring her website and showcasing her activities on B.E.T.’s Rip the Runway Monif C. has been the epitome of what a up and coming plus size merchant is all about. In 2006 I listed her as one of the 10 plus size merchants to watch and for 2007 she has shined with original fashions as well as opening up a boutique in Manhattan.
Though for some comments have been made that the designs of Monif C are to expensive she is offering quality clothing to plus size women. As an independent merchant she is also serving a niche that has been largely ignored by mainstream stores. Though it is changing thanks to ladies like Monif C. that are not

Plus Size Fashion
With the demand getting greater from larger men and women for more trendy fashion, the demand for high fashion or couture level items was sure to follow. The question remains though, “Who sells high fashion clothing for fuller figures?”
As I started to look around the selection though small still is light years ahead of what it was years ago. I could very well go with the common names in high fashion but I think that some of the lesser names would be more appropriate.

With more long time designers opting for comfort, one dress from Monif C that epitomizes this is the inspired by Halton convertible dress.
